Protester carries CV 'Arbeit macht frei' sign likely directed toward billionaire Governor
 [PJ] The Auschwitz Museum and Memorial condemned a protester who brought a sign featuring the Nazi slogan "Arbeit macht frei" to a rally against Illinois’s stay-at-home orders.The museum's official Twitter account responded to a photograph from the "Re-open Illinois" protest, which showed a woman wearing an American flag face mask while carrying a sign reading "Arbeit macht frei, JB." The initials appear to be directed to Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D), who is Jewish. "'Arbeit macht frei' was a false, cynical illusion the SS gave to prisoners of #Auschwitz. Those words became one of the icons of human hatred. It's painful to see this symbol instrumentalized & used again to spread hate. It's a symptom of moral & intellectual degeneration," the tweet reads. Posted by: Besoeker 2020-05-03 |
