September 21, 1943: A transport departed #Westerbork to #Auschwitz carrying 979 deportees. After selection, 303 men and 288 women were led into the camp. 100 women were chosen for Block 10 (experiments). only 14 men and 44 women survived this transport.

#RememberHistory #USAtoday

The transport reached Auschwitz on September 23, 1943, with 979 Jews - 60 children, 384 men and 394 women aged 50 and below, and 141 persons aged 51 and above. The deportees were required to remove their luggage from the train by themselves and were told that they would receive it later. Most of the survivors remember the first time they saw Jewish prisoners in “striped suits” and SS men with dogs clutching whips behind them. 
After selection, 303 men and 288 women were led into the camp. The men were tattooed with the serial numbers 151852–152154, and the women received the numbers 62984–63271. The other deportees were murdered in the gas chambers immediately after reaching the camp.
One hundred of the women who had passed the selection process were chosen for Block 10 - the barracks at Auschwitz where experiments were conducted. Out of the 2,685 Jews who had been deported in this transport and in the transports that had set out from Westerbork to Auschwitz on August 24 and September 14, 1943, 244 women were assigned to this block. After being threatened with death, 240 of them agreed to undergo the surgical procedures and 110 survived the war. Theresia van Praag was selected for medical experiments and survived the war.
In their testimonies, the Dutch women survivors from this transport describe the humiliation that they felt as male prisoners shaved their body hair, given that their block was part of the men’s camp. Only married women were placed in this block. Theresia managed to see her husband from a distance but was not allowed to speak with him; about two months later, he died.
Of the 979 deportees in the transport that left Westerbork for Auschwitz on September 21, 1943, only 14 men and 44 women are known to have survived.

In what world is a trip to #Auschwitz considered appropriate for children?

That sounds more like a trip designed to shatter them, or, even turn their minds in justifying #Israel's unforgiveable behaviour.

Will the charity also fund a trip to #Gaza?

"IAK President and #Auschwitz survivor Dr. Eva Umlauf on the Berlin election:

'The fact that #Berlin has shown the AfD the red card is a strong democratic signal. Now, The Left must act credibly and consistently distance itself from antisemitic forces within its own ranks.'"
