WHY DO SOME DENY THE HOLOCAUST HAPPENED?
Holocaust deniers call themselves “revisionists,” pretending to a scholarly “objectivity” in their so-called “research.” However, they are actually pseudo-historians and sham-intellectuals, cloaking themselves in respectability to find a wider audience for antisemitic and anti-democratic propaganda. They represent neo-Nazis, neo-fascists, and other hate groups who want to erase the memory of Nazi Germany’s crimes and atrocities. To counter such hate and to help ensure that the future will be marked by understanding and mutual respect, the Midwest Center for Holocaust Education and other Holocaust centers throughout the world dedicate themselves to bringing the truth of the Holocaust, its relevance, and its implications to our children, our fellow-citizens, and our communities.
