As Holocaust educators work with the Museum to teach this complex history during the coming school year, they're facing an ongoing challenge—educating many students who have been exposed to rampant Holocaust denial online. Holocaust education is more important than ever, especially in today's environment.That's why we urge you to join us in signing a pledge of support and gratitude for educators in the Museum's network, who work tirelessly to teach their middle and high school students the relevant lessons of the Holocaust. Your words of encouragement will reinforce the essential efforts to teach the facts amid today's rapidly spreading Holocaust lies and show that we are united in this crucial mission.
Sign this pledge and stand with educators, together with the Museum, as they start the new school year. Help the Museum send 13,500 pledges to teachers in our network, thanking them for their dedication to Holocaust education.

I stand with educators, like you, who are committed to teaching about how and why the Holocaust happened.
I pledge my support to the educators who have taken on the challenge of teaching the truth about the Holocaust. With hatred and lies saturating spaces—online and offline—it is critical to teach the undeniable truth. Educators' dedication to sharing Holocaust history ensures that young people, now and in the future, understand the lessons of the past and stand up to antisemitism and hate in all its forms.
To the teachers who bring Holocaust history into their classrooms: Thank you. Your tireless efforts to educate and inspire young minds are more important now than ever.
Together, we can ensure that the lessons of the past guide us toward a better future. And that new generations embrace their role in confronting Holocaust denial.
