Statement on Roma Genocide Remembrance Day
Olivia Marks-Woldman, Chief Executive of HMDT, states the importance of marking Roma Genocide Remembrance Day on 2 August.
Why mark HMD?
Holocaust Memorial Day is a national day that takes place on 27 January. We commemorate the six million Jewish men, women and children murdered during the Holocaust, and the millions more murdered under Nazi persecution. Prejudice still continues today within our communities and across the UK. We also learn and commemorate where persecution led in Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia and Darfur. The Holocaust Memorial Day Trust is the charity established by the government to promote and support Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) in the UK. We help protect the legacy of the Holocaust against denial and distortion, and shape a future built on empathy, understanding and respect. We bring the nation together to remember persecutions of the past and stand against hatred and prejudice in the present.
