Editorial: Remembering the Holocaust

On Monday, Jan. 27, Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman joined other elected officials and Jewish community leaders to illuminate the dome of the Theodore Roosevelt Executive and Legislative Building gold in observance of International Holocaust Remembrance Day. 

The ceremony was part of a series of events to recognize perhaps the most heinous attack on humanity against one group of people in history – the slaughter of 6 million Jews, men, women and  children at the hands of the Nazis.
