“To forget a Holocaust is to kill twice”. Elie Wiesel
This year marks the 75th anniversary of the Nanking Massacre, when the Japanese Imperial Army brutally raped, tortured and murdered more than 300,000 Chinese people. Horrific in intensity and scale, this atrocity remains relatively obscure in public awareness, while the memories and legacies of this history are alive today and continue to have a profound impact.
