Disclaimer: I am not exactly Jewish. I am a 'typical' central European mongrel, my small family is overcomplicated but Jewish culture was the closest to me when growing up. My ancestors died in Warsaw Ghetto.
I hope I have not offended you by posting here.
The history of Warsaw Ghetto is not well know despite recent disgusting remarks. The fact those people know nothing about Warsaw Ghetto makes me angry and frustrated. That's why I want invite you to do one small thing next week Friday.
Next week, on Friday 19th, it will be 81st anniversary of Uprising in Warsaw Ghetto.
One may say it was a tragic event but for me, above all, it was heroic attempt to die with dignity or to escape and survive. The alternative was to wait for being transported to death camps.
Daffodils became a symbol of this heroic fight. Marek Edelman, who was a survivor, was gifted a bunch of them every year on the day of anniversary. Edelman would lay them at the Heroes of the Ghetto monument.
No one really knows why those particular flowers were chosen. Some believe was because they resembled David's Star, some believe it was a coincidence. Nonetheless, every year POLIN Museum asks people to wear a little paper daffodil. You can read a little bit more here: https://polin.pl/en/Warsawghettouprising
I understand you may not want to share on SM, or not having time for DIY daffodils. However, if you can have a moment to remember about those people it will be everything.
