Candles in the Museum’s Hall of Remembrance. US Holocaust Memorial Museum

Eight decades after the Holocaust began, people worldwide will pause on the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz to honor the memory of Europe’s Jews, who were targeted for annihilation. During this ceremony, leaders from the United States and abroad will join Holocaust survivors in conveying the urgent responsibility we all share to protect the lessons and legacy of this history and to defend the truth—now more than ever.

Watch live at youtube.com/holocaustmuseum. You do not need a YouTube account to view our program. After the live broadcast, the recording will be available to watch on demand on the Museum's YouTube page.

Also on January 27, at 9:30 a.m. ET, join us for Eisenhower’s Foresight: Protecting the Truth of the Holocaust. In this Facebook Live event, Susan Eisenhower, author of How Ike Led, will discuss her grandfather’s vigilance to preserve the truth of the Holocaust.
