Yom HaShoah: Marking the Enormity of the Holocaust in 2020

Herut North America has developed an inspirational new anthology and guidebook for observing Yom HaShoah.

The collection includes classic, hard-to-find essays and historical texts by Zionist leaders and thinkers including Menachem Begin, Ze'ev Jabotinsky, Ben Hecht, Emil Fackenheim, and Moshe Arens. The 40 pages booklet also contains more recent articles and an exclusive excerpt from the recent book "Jews Make the Best Demons: “Palestine” and the Jewish Question“ by Eric Rozenman.

"With there being no live, in-person events to mark Yom HaShoah this year Herut decided to produce this 40-page free eBook to help people observe this important day," said Karma Feinstein Cohen, the Executive Director of World Herut. "Our fervent hope is that through this unique compilation readers will be moved to care more about Jewish Unity."

"Zionist education is Herut's main mission, and has been since our inception, and one reason for the publishing of this Holocaust anthology was to allow readers to learn about how Ze'ev Jabotinsky ideas inspired his Zionist movement to battle the Nazis on many fronts," said Moshe Phillips, the National Director of Herut North America. "But, we also have included translations of Kaddish, Kel Maleh Rachamim, and emotion-laden stories from direct eyewitnesses to the enormity of the Shoah, so that people in their own homes can get what they may need from the eBook this year."

Herut is an international grassroots movement for Zionist pride and education and is dedicated to the ideals Ze'ev Jabotinsky, the pre-World War Two leader of Zionism.
