@katiecouric : @eva.stories is based on a diary kept by Eva Heyman, a Jewish girl living in Nazi occupied Hungary in 1944. She died at the age of 13 in one of the gas chambers in Auschwitz. The creators of Eva’s Stories, Israel tech executive Mati Kochavi and his daughter Maya, created this account because; “The memory of the Holocaust outside of Israel is disappearing. We thought, let’s do something really disruptive. We found the journal and said, ‘Let’s assume that instead of pen and paper Eva had a smartphone and documented what was happening to her.’ So we brought a smartphone to 1944.” According to the @adl_national’s most recent report, in 2018 alone, anti-Semitic assaults more than doubled and 1,879 anti-Semitic incidents were recorded, including the deadliest attack on the Jewish community in the history of the United States. It’s so important today more than ever to remember those we lost during the horror of the Holocaust. ♥️✡️ #holocaustmemorial #holocaustremembranceday #yomhashoah
