A pile of shoes. Presumably taken from the Jews before they were killed.

The warehouse was called "Kanada".

Only a few hundred meters away, victims were burned in open pits. The crematoria worked 24/7 but the ovens and the Sonderkommando couldn't cope with the influx of new transports fast enough.

Another Day in Death: September 3rd, 2017. A mosque was bombed in Kabul.

Horror never seems to end. Humans never learn. Piles of shoes, piles of bones, ashes and smoke. Can we not do better?

The same documentary is available on Youtube. Here's a link to Invidious.

Slides based on the Auschwitz Album that Lili Jacob found in Dora-Mittelbau after liberation.

This frame has somebody (smoking) on the ramp during selection (Aussortierung) of a transport that looks like Josef Mengele.

In this frame, transportees emerging from the DR boxcars are initially relieved and happy to be let out and breathe fresh air, waving at the photographer, unaware of their fate. To modern eyes, it looks as if they were taking a selfie.

The documentary film is streamed on the Finnish National Broadcaster Yle web service. But it's geo-locked, only watchable in Finland.

The English edition of the film is also shorter (51 mins). The original German documentary film is 1 hour 27 mins.

Some really good pictures from Auschwitz that were retouched and colored in the newspaper today: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10448283/Haunting-colourised-pictures-Nazi-concentration-camp-victims-reveal-horror-Holocaust.html

You can see a lot of bones poking through the skin in their arms and legs and chests - they were starving to death. But they looked emotionally at peace with their hardship in these pictures. Their God is a great God who can give great mercy even in the worst of times.

And yet a school board in the United States banned 'Maus' by Art Spiegelman.

It won't be long before we have book burning. History is repeating itself. Over and over...
