quote:
ORIGINAL: Patrick It was 60 years ago today that Soviet troops arrived at Auschwitz to free the remaining 7,000 remaining prisoners. At Auschwitz, it's estimated that one million Jews, 83,000 Poles and 20,000 Gypsies died. The estimates vary widely when it comes to the Gypsy deaths in camps from 20,000 to 5,000,000 as few records were kept for them. They were also not liberated in Auschwitz at the same time as everyone else, many being kept there for up to a year afterwards. We should also not forget the sterilizatons that occurred and still occur to this day. The problem for many Eastern European Gypsies continues. Thanks for posting this Pat, it seems incredible that people could forget such recent history or would want to. Kate
