Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day on the 76th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz.
The New England Holocaust Memorial in Boston was built to foster reflection on the impact of bigotry and the outcomes of evil during World War II and to this day.
Never Forget.

In rare twist of luck, this month's full moon coincides with Friday the 13th for the first time since October 2000. Even better, this month's full moon is the harvest moon: bit.ly/34FKMql.
