We. the living. must bear the responsibility of insuring that no individual. institution. or government can ever again decide who shall have the right to live. The holocaust has great significance for Americans. American soldiers liberated many of the camps and were the first witnesses of what the rest of the world. including our country. had ignored. Many of the survivors of the holocaust finally immigrated to the United States and became U.S. citizens. and many went to Israel. where outside threats to Jewish life still exist. Instead of monuments. the holocaust survivors have stressed the importance of studying the lessons of the holocaust. We must teach ourselves and others.
