Auschwitz – Be a Witness, a Video by Ricky Thind

Auschwitz – Be a Witness from Ricky Thind

“Auschwitz – Be a Witness is a video I did for Hampshire College.

The ‘Be a Witness' short had a main aim; to bring across the tragic reality of war on civil liberties; its consequence's on its survivors and to help them understand more about the psychology of humans during genocide.

Trying to inspire young people to do anything is hard enough but getting them to visit Poland maybe needed something like this. You can tell history was a favourite of mine in high school.

Editor's note: Video contains graphic and archival content. Video for educational purposes only.

Music: Jack Peñate – No One Lied”

    Thank you for that video… I actually went to see Auschwitz last year and i think everyone should go there just once, to see it with their own eyes…
