Holocaust

A small town in eastern Germany has banned the installation of new 'stumbling blocks' — brass memorial plaques set into pavements marking the last known homes or workplaces of Jews and other Nazi victims. The decision has drawn widespread outrage across Germany, with critics calling it a troubling signal about attitudes toward Holocaust remembrance in parts of the former East Germany.

The Los Angeles Holocaust Museum has removed a social media post that stated 'never again' applies to all people, prompting criticism that the phrase is being limited to Jewish victims of the Holocaust. Commenters are questioning why a universal anti-genocide message would be retracted, with many linking the decision to the war in Gaza and debates over how the 'never again' pledge applies there.
