Holocaust Memorial Day today - and I have a piece over at 'On This Deity' to mark the anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising in 1943.
I wanted to do it - but I'm also conscious that it's one of those stories so powerful that almost anything that can be written is in danger of being inadequate.
There's nothing I can add to the story of the Holocaust that hasn't already be said better by others, But for any activist who has ever faced the inevitable cynics' question - why struggle when all the odds are stacked against you - the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising does perhaps provide the ultimate inspiration.
