Desde hace 33 years, The March for Life is one of the most exciting events del Iom Hashoá, el Día del Recuerdo del Holocausto that Israel celebrates these Jews in memory of the six million exterminated Jews by the Nazis during the Second World War.

As far as 2020, this year the physical march does not tend to take place due to the coronavirus pandemic. In exchange, for the first time, it will be used 3D innovator technology that has the potential to form a virtual form by the three kilometers that separate the concentration camps from Auschwitz y Birkenau.

Además has great symposia, videos, encounters with sobrivivientes, detached personalities, mandates and testimonies that allow to keep the memory alive and record the victims of horror (die moglike deelnemer in las distintas actividades registrándose en este enlace). As every year, the goal of the March is that the mayor can increase the number of people learn about the Nazi genocide, la peor tragedia del siglo XX.

Infobae conversation with Baruch Adler, cofundador de la March by the Life and vice-president of his junta directive, on the importance of acquiring the initiative on the large scale of the years, the impact of the pandemic and the future challenges in which it anti-Semitism y el Holocaust negotiation register an alarming increase in distant parts of the world.

How did I come up with the idea of ​​the March?

1986 In 1986, a group of Israelis who, for one reason or another, were bound by the Holocaust theme to see if it was possible to have more physical contact with the Polish cities, however, with the distinct ghettos, with the cements. I believe that he has been fined 80, quizzes for the distinct ability of the people to travel and the wall of Berlin, the people felt the need to feel with their own possessions, to feel that they were wrong. This is why in April of this year we will travel to Poland and we will start thinking about what type of activity can be done to create an educational message for humanity. The idea of ​​the March gives us a pole that we explained between the camps of Auschwitz I and Auschwitz III (Birkenau) has a distance of 3 kilometers and medium, a distance that is possible to walk. In April 1988, we organized a rally in Poland for as many as 1,000 participants, including adult and Israeli mayors. This march would be an exit from the educational point of view, many participants would like to decide. Tan fue asi that decidimos hacerla annually. As of 1989, on the Day of Recovery, which is always a week before the Passover of the Catholic Church, we are organizing this march that we have been increasing the number of participants in attracting influential figures in education, the arts, the media, politics.

In the last few years, the Latin American participation has been extraordinarily important.

Cu ¿How many people are participating in the March to the end?

一 The total participation of the 300 million participants and March 31 is the first in 2019. And las últimas participaron 10 million personas. The participants are juniors from the secondary school, from 16 to 18 years, the judicial majority, although not all. También participaron kilometers y miles de gentiles. For many years, the march has been an important educational program, with participation required to learn much about the Holocaust. In the last few years we have also been extraordinarily important to the recent participation of Latin Americans. Our emotions over the years have seen that from Argentina there are 600-700 participants, above all of the schools. There are also hundreds of participants from Brazil, Panama and Mexico. A total hay of 1500 participants in Latino America. There are European cities, including Poland and the restricted countries.

¿How important is the presence of Holocaust survivors?

一 We intend that each group be accompanied by a knowledgeable person who can explain to them and with their five feelings what he has seen, what he feels. There are so many people who live as if they were discovering at the moment, I am very moved. The march is the day of the Holocaust, and in the anterior and posterior slides of the groups recurrence of Poland, visiting extermination camps, cements, ghettos in distinct cities. In addition, it is an important educational program that we create, influence and influence all participants in importing their religion or country.

一How did the pandemic impact its activities? This year the Marcha March was canceled by the first party since 1988.

一 La marcha de 2020 is an established organization. When in February we meet with the leading leaders of the national contingents emphysema to help as much as in Poland as in the distant lands we will be able to overcome the problem of ingressing including including the participants. In March, the event will be canceled and other ceremonies will be organized. We decide to hold a ceremony in which all the people writing a message that we translate and possess in places that are held virtually on the Auschwitz camp. Deel 18 million people, including representatives of various countries such as the President and the Prime Minister of Israel and the personalities of the arts, the media. We would also like to have a good Latin American participation.

Y ¿Y este año?

Ver In the spring of 2020, when we understand that the pandemic will not take place, we will organize to implement mayoral events. For this 2021 we are preparing a virtual Market for all those who believe that we have an important message for young people and for humanity that can lead to marchers and enchanting them in Antorchas, six for six months of time and a lifetime of existence Israel. If willing to activate a March of the 30 minutes and a ceremony of a 50 minutes, a virtual activation of a transmitirse mañana [este jueves] through the social networks, sites and television channels. We believe that the event can be ridiculed and seen by millions of people, that we are ours. We will publish a diary of diarrhea and the negation of this tragedy. It is the lucha that we are living adelante.

Distinguished international forces trataron delegitimar Israel, lo cual hizo resurgir focos antisemitas que estaban latentes

一 This year the medicine during the Holocaust will be the property of the event. What was that decision?

一 Each year we will cover a theme that is the brand of the event. This year we decide that the theme is medicine, morality, the Holocaust. There are a number of doctors who are fighting against covid-19 in the last year and also people who are being treated by doctors, nurses, paramedics during the war. It is a good way to win the good medicine, which saves thousands of people during the war and now during the pandemic, in front of the deadly medicine symbolized by people like Dr. Mengele.

一 Living on the theme of negotiation. Various questions muster that each of the more young people in the West Indies ignored what happened in the Holocaust and included the existence of places like Auschwitz. How do you explain it?

一 If there is a chic if the teaching is paid, with the proposal, it will not be interested. Lucha against negligence has to do with the right herramientas, it needs an organized education campaign. Because if one knows what he cares about it is more difficult than him.

一 También registers an increase in anti-Semitism, especially in Europe. What is his miracle about this?

Gra Thankfully this last year has seen a recruitment. Distinguished international fortresses treaty of delegitimizing Israel, which hizo resurrects anti-Semitic foci who are latent, sober todo in Europe. Moreover, the facility that has in the social speeches to deceive and atrocities generates a call that has the things empire. In this way, the work that hiccups during educating educators and politicians of good will be done aboard by all. And when it comes to degrading pestilence the judges of some way are always guilty. Ya ocurrió en el pasado, y ahora han sido nuewamente culpados.

T ¿Teme que cuando no haya más sobrevivientes la situation pueda empeorar?

一 Yes, for we wish that those who listen to the sorevivientes sean los testigos del manana. And as they pass on the testimony to others who will see the testimonies of the next generation. For example, all testimonials that were collected by the Sohá Spielberg Foundation, as well as testimonials from people who marketed. Of all manners, all of which we always have a granite of arena in the play. Because hooi tanto por hacer, tanta gente que no escucha o no sabe. For me personally it is a personal and institutional deber. My mother had a sobriviviente in very painful circumstances, in which case it is part of me and I am at every moment that you are all, that he has lived gracefully to me that my mother suffers. To think that you can learn to do olvidarse, that you can read and neglect, is how to be saved.

¿¿Algo pone en riesgo la continuity de las Marchas en el futuro? Consider, for example, the recent Poland which, as a crime, was falsely accused in Poland of committing crimes committed by Nazi Germany.

一 No creo that is convincing in an obstacle, because the Poles want to show that they participate in the memory of the crimes of the Germans. If it is forbidden to prohibit the entry or recovery of markets with regard to the accusation of complicity, it is precisely that which should be avoided. They want the mayor to travel number of people to Poland to show the crimes of the Germans. I do not believe that these events are in danger in the short space. Creo que las Marchas van a seguir como educacional incluso quuando no haya más sobrevivientes porque todos watellos que han escuchado, que han aprendido, llevarán su mensaje.

The Global Ceremony of Iom Hashoá will take place on the 8th of April and the 11th of Argentina. (9 in Mexico and Colombia). The ceremony will take place on April 15 and the 22 Argentine hours (the 20th in Mexico and Colombia) with the global celebration of Iom Haatzmaut, commemorating the 73 years of the creation of the State of Israel.
