New English Language Edition of "Oś" Monthly Magazine. 66th Anniversary of the Liberation.
The February issue of Oś is dominated by the events of January 27, the 66th anniversary of the liberation of the former Nazi German Concentration and Extermination Camp Auschwitz. In this issue you can read an account of the ceremony and the most important words that were uttered during the event—speeches by former prisoners as well as Presidents: of the Republic of Poland, Bronisław Komorowski, and the Federal Republic of Germany, Christian Wulff. We also write about the visit by the presidents to the International Youth Meeting Center.
We handed over two pages of the monthly to participants of the project entitled Memory and Commemoration in the Era of Web 2.0. In the January seminar, organized by Maximilian Kolbe Werk, young people from several countries took part. The articles in Oś are the first effects of the press group. We would like to draw your attention to an interview with one of the participants of the project, Mustafa Yakupov from Macedonia, as well as the photo essay.
In addition to that, in this volume you can also read about an exhibit of items donated by former prisoners and their families to the Auschwitz Memorial Site. The exhibition can be viewed on the website: www.auschwitz.org.
Presently, we also invite you for the March review of films on Jewish topics at the Jewish Center. At the Monday screenings, as many as 14 films will be shown from the International Film Festival Jewish Motifs. The monthly Oś is one of the media patrons of the event.
