There is an irony here. The day is celebrated on the 27th day of Nissan in the Jewish calendar. As we know, Jewish days begin in the evening. The 27th of Nissan actually begins on April 20 which is Hitler's birth date. It is also within two days of the start of the Warsaw uprising. At B'nai Jeshurun members who had family members killed, and in a town in Hungary that had so many of its Jewss killed, the names in both places of those killed will be read. That is the power of memory and remembrance.
