Kleiner Reminder:
Morgen ist Holocaust-Gedenktag und das ArolsenArchiv hat wieder dazu aufgerufen, am digitalen Denkmal für die Opfer des Nationalsozialismus mitzuwirken.
30.000 Personalakten aus dem KZ Stutthof sollen digitalisiert werden.

Auf der Homepage des Archives gibt es eine hervorragende Einführung für Schulen - es ist wirklich ganz einfach.

Macht mit und teilt

For a while in 2022, monkeypox terrified us. But where did it go? The answer isn't luck—and lies largely in the fact that queer men seem to have learned more from AIDS and Covid-19 than the authorities did: https://www.wired.com/story/the-bittersweet-defeat-of-mpox

👋 Hi, this is the official Medium account on our new instance! This is our home on @me.dm, where we’ll be boosting writers and publications, sharing stories, and trying to deepen our understanding of Mastodon and the fediverse.
