Together we remember

Have you ever feared death because you are different? What if our government sought to exterminate everyone like you? As Americans and Millennials, we tend to take our security and the presence of an international justice system for granted. We trust that when an atrocity occurs, international law will intervene and the guilty parties will be punished. However, it was not so long ago that mass murder was not a crime. Until after World War II, an attempt to wipe out a nation or race was not against any law. The word “genocide” did not exist.
