Every year, Holocaust Memorial Day is celebrated on January 27 as a memorial day marking the victims of the Holocaust, which resulted in the murder of one-third of the Jewish people, as well as countless members of other minorities, by Nazi Germany. The Nazis utilized propaganda, persecution, and legislation to deny German Jews human and civil rights.
