Today, May 8, 2025, marks 80 years since the end of World War II. Some celebrate with parades of tanks and missiles. I prefer to remember that day in 2000, when I visited the Terezin ghetto and concentration camp near Prague, where thousands of Jews died, while others only passed through before heading to Auschwitz. I knew what I was going to visit, but I didn't expect to find this stele, in memory of Robert Desnos, my favorite poet, but also a member of the Resistance, who died of exhaustion here, just a few days after the camp was liberated by Allied troops... I remember the tears that came to my eyes in front of this stele. For me, May 8 is that. Let us remember this, as civilian populations today are dying en masse from war, nationalism, and greed. Ukraine, Palestine, Sudan, and what will we see next?
