05.01.2022 Today is International Holocaust Remembrance Day. The ZFA’s Emily Gian writes Every time I see this photo, it breaks my heart. At first glance it just looks l...ike a mother clutching the hand of her son. But if you look a little closer, the mother has a Star of David patch around her arm, a telling sign that all was not ok in their little world. This is a photograph of my great-uncle Isaac Skop z"l and his mother, my great-grandmother Hannah Skop z"l. It seems strange to call this little boy, not much older than my own young sons, my great-uncle. This is the only photo we have of him, and here he is - frozen in time. He never finished school, he was never given the chance to study a language, or fall in love or bring children of his own into the world. This boy, who had a twin brother named Jacob and a cheeky smile, would never know that his legacy would live on in the far off land of Australia. In 1942, Isaac was taken along with his mother by the Nazis. My grandmother never saw either of them again. Isaac was just nine years old. I would like to believe that his mother, clutching his hand so tightly in this photo, held on to his hand just like this until their final moments on this earth together because every other alternative is just too much to fathom. And so, as we mark International Holocaust Remembrance Day, I am sharing this piece from five years ago where the words, sadly, ring as true now as they did then. "After the Holocaust, the world declared never again. They made a promise to the survivors never again. At school, we learnt a different slogan, lizkor ve lo lishkoach remember and never forget. That was our promise to our grandparents. As I think about all that is happening in the world today, I think about my grandparents, three of them no longer with us, and I wonder, at what point did the world decide that never again did not matter anymore? What was the turning point that got us to here, in 2015, where anti-Semitism is as rampant as ever?" http://www.zfa.com.au/never-again/ May Isaac and Hannah's memories, as well as the memories of the 6 million victims of the Holocaust be forever blessed. And may Never Again really mean Never Again.
