GENOCIDE: PRESENT TENSE
On this day in 1945, the Soviet Union's Red Army liberated the Auschwitz Concentration Camp. The atrocities carried out in Auschwitz, and in other Nazi camps, included mass execution in gas chambers; forced hard labor and perverse human experiments.

Coline Fay was released yesterday and came home to France.
 She thanks all who supported her and campaigned for her release over the 2 months. She speaks out in solidarity with thousands of political prisoners in Senegal in intolerable, unsafe, overcrowded conditions. Do not forget them!
