"O trabalho liberta"
|
Auschwitz I
|
|
Local onde eram executados a tiro os prisioneiros cujo comportamento era considerado inadequado ou que sobre os quais recaiam suspeitas de planearem fugas.

A única câmara de gás que não foi destruída pelos Nazis em fuga.
|
Entrada principal de Auschwitz II - Birkenau
|
O caminho de ferro que trazia os prisioneiros até ao campo de concentração e extermínio.

Interior de uma das barracas onde os prisioneiros eram mantidos. Cada beliche chegava a comportar 9 prisioneiros.

Auschwitz: um lugar que merece ser recordado, para evitar a repetição de erros do passado. Visitar este conjunto de campos de concentração é viver uma experiência única e inenarrável, que foto alguma conseguirá retratar devidamente.

Correction: my relatives who did not survive were not 'prisoners' but innocent victims of The Holocaust! And the picture of the Jesuit priests does not please me at all: like it or not The Vatican was directly complicit in allowing sHitler and is henchmen to come to power! Pope John Paul II may have tried very hard to make ammends; but for me they fall way too short. Another point: this series should have started with B/W photos of pictures (on display there) of all the people who were murdered! Without them this series appears mute.

A prisoner is someone who is in prison. Prison is a place for criminals. A concentration camp holds innocent people. Though some camp survivors might have accepted the term prisoner; they did not understand the term's real meaning. Perhaps the proper word might be 'victim(s)' or 'murdered innocent(s)'.

A prisoner is someone that is deprived of liberty, which doesn't mean that he/she is a criminal. Most of the people in Auschwitz/Birkenau were innocent victims, there's no doubt about it. But their liberty was taken and they were confined in an horrific concentration camp. For me, that makes them prisoners, independently of being innocent or not (btw, there were also criminals in Auschwitz I). Thank you for your comments.
