A report by the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany highlights the impending loss of Holocaust survivors and the rise of antisemitism. The world will lose 70% of its Holocaust survivors in the next 10 years and 90% over the next 15 years. The memory of the Holocaust has served as a bulwark against antisemitism, but without survivors to share their stories, there is fear that the dam will break and the norm of persecution will return. Holocaust education faces a catch-22, as investing more into the subject raises resentment, but no education dooms the matter to be forgotten or twisted. The world may forget the Holocaust, but the Jews will not.
