Statement from Chancellor King and the SUNY Board of Trustees on International Holocaust Remembrance Day

The following statement came from SUNY Chancellor John B. King, Jr. yesterday in commemorating International Holocaust Remembrance Day: 

“Today, SUNY solemnly commemorates International Holocaust Remembrance Day on the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau. SUNY stands with our Jewish community and the Jewish community around our state, nation, and world in remembering the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust and the millions of other victims of the Nazis who perished, and in honoring the survivors of Nazi persecution and atrocities. We express our gratitude to the Allied forces who, risking their own lives, defeated the Nazis and made this liberation possible. On this International Holocaust Remembrance Day, SUNY underscores its deep commitment to fighting antisemitism as we speak with one voice: ‘Never Forget. Never Again.’”
