New English language edition of Oś — the Auschwitz Memorial magazine
Most of this issue of Oś is dedicated to the commemoration of the 65th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz. Inside, you will find reports of the commemorations, as well as the words of former prisoners and politicians that were said during the ceremony at the former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp.
On the last page there is a photomontage that includes portraits of former prisoners, the most important guests of the annual commemoration. We are incredibly thankful to the witnesses of history from over 65 years ago that even though it was incredibly cold they came to the commemoration. We thank them for the fact that as long as they have the strength, they share their experiences with us, as well as young people with whom they share the truth about Auschwitz.
In addition, this edition of Oś includes a report on the inauguration of the Forum Pro Publico Bono “Citizens for European Solidarity” at the International Youth Meeting Center. We also congratulate the Center for the Polish-German Youth Prize “Keep Remembrance”, which is given by the Polish-German Youth Cooperation for the workshop project Language of the perpetrators—language of the victims, which has been written about in previous issues.
In this Oś you will also find an invitation to view films dealing with Jewish topics at the Jewish Center, which are organized together with the Jewish Motifs Association. In addition, on the pages of the Center for Dialogue and Prayer we recommend an extraordinarily interesting and moving history of a missionary Bartholomäa from Münster, who has searched her family in Poland for many years.
Publication of the English edition of "Oś" Magazine is possible thanks to the support of Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Poland.
