Sheryl Sandberg Instagram – Today is Yom HaShoah, the annual day of remembrance for the 6 million Jews who were killed during the Holocaust and the millions more who were killed for who they were. It’s a day to remember the victims, honor the righteous people who helped others survive, and reflect on what kind of world we want to build and leave for our children.   This is deeply personal for me and so many Jews. My great-great-grandmother, Chana Bassa, left her home in Vilnius, Lithuania, to escape religious persecution. I would not be here today if it wasn’t for her courageous journey to Ellis Island in June 1889. If she had not left, my family almost certainly would have been killed in the Holocaust. Growing up hearing about her experience along with the millions who endured the horrors of the Holocaust, opened my eyes to how much evil there could be in the world – and how we have to stand firmly against hatred of all kinds always.   As Jews, we say “Never Again.” Since October 7th, this vow is more resonant than ever. During times as polarizing and scary as these, we owe it to our ancestors to speak out against racism of all kinds. We owe it to our children to work towards a world free from prejudice and hate.
