Simon Wiesenthal
The man whose life work of tracking down Nazis and bringing them to justice died this week at the age of 96. After surviving the Mauthausen death camp, Simon Wiesenthal went on to track down 1,100 Nazis including Adolf Eichmann. Wiesenthal’s work against anti-semitism and intolerance must not go unnoticed or end with his death. It is important work.
Lots of great links and more information at BBC News
For more on the death camps, I highly recommend Hitler’s Death Camps written by a former teacher of mine, Dr. Konnilyn Feig.
