My God, this is so heartbreaking, time can not and should not erase the memory and the feeling.

Such photos always get to me. So many innocent lifes....

So many innocent lives......

I honestly cannot stop staring. A picture worth one thousand words indeed. This picture is also worth one thousand feels. Despite the fact that there is literally nothing I could have done as I was born in 1974, 30 years after WWII, I just wanna grab those kids and run. KIDS for God's sake. I'm gonna go ugly cry in the corner now.

I am german. I don't understand it. I never will. Why. Just why?! Human beings being slaughtered. For the heck of it. I don't understand. Never again. Absolutely f*****g never again!

That woman holding a baby was either a Gypsy or Roma. Jews weren't the only people the Nazis tried to exterminate.

That's so so so so sad

Like Pink Floydian Panda said, imagine what the world could be like today if the holocaust had never happened. The memories wouldnt exist. The pain would never have been. There could be a cure for cancer, anything. Now we'll never know

What kind of person was this to take such photos (and develop them) He / she must have known. What was the motivation?

The photo that I found most haunting, was of their little shoes piled in a dumpster like container. You do realize that there are a lot of people like this who walk among us today.

Aww this is so sad :(

This is too emotional. I can't upvote all of these photos. :(((

:(

Judging by their clothes, those in the photo look more like Roma than Jews.

I can't imagine anyone thinking that this photo "looks normal." :-(

This is likely happening to the Uyghur's in China right now

people suck. so hard.

Those people killing the por children are hartless

It reminds me of when school kids are on a school and excursion and the teachers get them to hold hands so they don't get lost. It's so heartbreaking.

All those poor souls. Just terrible.

I wish that those kids were never there. So many futures ended in such horrible ways.

Arghhhh

Why, why is there a photo of something so completely horrific. It's important for us to see now, to not forget, to make sure it never happens again, but I cannot fathom the thought process of taking this at the time - whoever could do that - and why?

This is so sad.

Makes me cry

So sad

Very upsetting!

Seems knowingly :(

Hmm must not have been in the camp long, they still look healthy. Poor babies

our government now just doing population reduction with Fentanyl and allowing killers into the US

🥺 it's happening in Gaza

We can "know" this without "seeing" it.

This is heartbreaking 💔

Sadly they knew.

The woman with the scarf and the babe in arms looks like a Roma woman. Little known fact is that the Roma were placed on the same level as Jews and targeted by the Nazis too. Here is what Wikipedia says: "Historians estimate that between 250,000 and 500,000 Romani and Sinti were killed by Nazi Germans and their collaborators—25% to over 50% of the estimate of slightly fewer than 1 million Roma in Europe at the time. Later research cited by Ian Hancock estimated the death toll to be at about 1.5 million out of an estimated 2 million European Roma." The word used by at least one group of Roma for the genocide translates to "the devouring". I am Roma from my father and Jewish from my mother so this really gives me the chills...

these people are so cruel

Then think, this may be their luckiest day....

This is traumatizing and absolutly heartbreaking. Fly High

Oh I remember seeing a WW2 movie on tv once, there was a truck loaded with naked women on their way to get gassed. A young woman jumped off the truck, screamed and ran away. Only to be forced back to the gas chamber & get killed. Will never forget her scream

I can never understand how anyone can kill a child.

This is just so awful

My tears are flowing.

Man's inhumanity to man.

:(
