This is one of the most haunting photos I have ever seen. It is hundreds of wedding rings that were removed from those in Concentration Camps.
I haven’t seen a single post on my dash about it being the remembrance day of the Holocaust today so I guess it’s up to me
This is sobering.
Too important a message to not reblog.
i cant handle losing a follower let alone a spouse omg
this is heartbreaking
this is disgusting.
I'm sorry but I hate that THIS is the picture that makes people go, "omg this is horrible" seriously? We're talking about the Holocaust ...while the removal of wedding rings is undoubtably horrible, I find the pictures of children's shoes worse. (Not to mention the even more terrific pictures that exist...of starving people, of piles of bodies heaped like garbage, prisoners forced to smile at the camera) This picture is horrible, but everything bout the Holocaust was terrible. The removal of wedding rings was at least (relatively) painless in most cases....the removal of gold fillings was not. This notion that the disturbance of love is the worst thing that can happen to someone is ridiculous.
