Necessary teachings

Activists for Peace during the tour expressed that the exhibition is based on the study of the history of the Holocaust and other genocides, for the universal teachings that have been left to humanity and that should be transmitted to present and future generations so that it never happens again.

For his part, the head of Citizen Care, Carlos Uriel Trinidad, said:«I have always thought that people who do not know their history are condemned or forced to repeat it.»

 

Alarm signs​​​​​​​

For the GEAP, the recognition of these facts allows the identification of warning signs in the emergence of governments, groups or extremists that carry out actions that may trigger new crimes against the human family. For this reason, they continue to carry out activities like this one throughout the Mexican territory.
