In the context of the
International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the "Peace &
Freedom" High School of Deryneia-Sotira,
hosted the Exhibition "Spots of Light: Woman in the Holocaust."
This was a very
important event, which took place at the initiative of the Administration of
the School, and gave the opportunity to students and other visitors, to draw
messages and inspiration.
Among other things, the exhibition presents
the efforts of women to survive, their daily lives, and how they experienced
incarceration. The exhibition highlights the spots of light that emerge,
in the darkness of an unprecedented genocide. The range of women’s responses to this evil, which was turned against them with all its violence, was broad and diverse. Motherhood, Care and Resistance, were
just a few of the areas in which women played an active role during the
Holocaust
