    A survey released today found that 41% of Americans—and 66% of young people—cannot say what Auschwitz was. This is one of several staggering statistics underscoring the importance of days like #HolocaustRemembranceDay that call on us to #NeverForget.

        As memories fade & survivors become fewer, we must never forget one of mankind’s darkest periods. We must teach our children about it & show by example how to promote justice & equality. We must all pledge to #neveragain let such evil flourish.

        There are many ways to teach about the history of Auschwitz. People can follow @AuschwitzMuseum, see our virtual visit: http://panorama.auschwitz.org  or use the whole set of online lessons: http://auschwitz.org/en/education/e-learning … We provide tools & hope educators will make use of them.

        So being a former educator don’t you think this should be addressed? We don’t teach our foundations anymore, we teach to an exam. That has never been a winning model and any teacher knows that.

        Why isn’t the Holocaust taught in our schools? This is a very important historical event in human history that needs to be understood how it happened so it isn’t repeated.

        Maybe if we were allowed to teach deep content rather than broad content, we could teach in a way that allowed for “stickiness” of connections and critical thinking and not the regurgitation of facts for test scores. Time to realign WHAT we value in education.

        I can tell you that while I was taught about WWII when I was a kid, the camps, their names and what happened there were never mentioned. Perhaps it's time to double check curriculum standards and textbooks for historical omissions.

        Oswiecm. I can even say it in Polish. Why are we shocked by this? We elected Donald Trump as president. Obviously , we are at a high water mark for ignorance in this country.

        Since we changed from a "Education System" to a "Liberal-progressive Indoctrination System". It's not surprising at all. These are the same people that think Conservatives should be jailed for their opinion.

        You're a doofus. I was taught this in school, in Colorado, and have been to Dachau. Stop making the holocaust a political issue.

        Thank you Senator. With the rise of anti-Semitism and the emboldening of hate groups it is so important that we do a better job of ensuring that the lessons of the Holocaust are not allowed to fade from memory. #NeverAgain #HolocaustRemembranceDay

        Sad, but not surprising. But, here we find ourselves stuck with Trump; speaking of history, I'd be surprised if he's ever even heard of the Good Neighbor Policy or the Monroe Doctrine or has even read the US Constitution. I could go on but I'm beginning to feel ill...

        How sad. It’s probably not mentioned or taught in our school anymore.

        My kids at Niwot High School know about Auschwitz. Many years ago I took a group to visit Dachau. A very powerful trip.

        What in the hell did you expect - our president is a reality show star. Early in his administration Jerry Springer admonished him for being crass.
