The holocaust has great significance for Americans and for people everywhere. Americans liberated many of the camps and were the first witnesses of what the rest of the world. including the United States. had been unwilling to acknowledpe. Many of the survivors of the holocaust immigrated to the United States and are an integral part of our society. The survivors themselves have stressed the importance of studying the lessons of the holocaust. to understand the unique and universal implications of annihilating 6 million Jews as a formal state policy to elimnate Jews as Jews. not as an accidental event but. rather. as a primary goal. To comprehend the holocaust and to apply that understanding to the present and fuature. and to seek to prevent genocide against any people is the mission of the Educational Foundation and the Committee on Conscience.
