Today is Holocaust Memorial Day.

On this day we remember the worst genocide Europe and the world has experienced throughout history. A genocide which primarily targeted Jews and Roma, but also those who were disabled, Slavic people (especially Poles), Jehovah’s Witnesses, communists, socialists, and homosexuals.

We’re so many years onward, but the world hasn’t learned.
Racism (Islamophobia, antisemitism, colorism), nationalism and far-right politics are on the rise. The 3 main parts of the Nazi ideology. They believed they were above all else, the exact same ideology of what we still see today…
And the disturbing fact is that the question is not whether it will happen again, but rather who will be next.
In Myanmar, Sudan, Syria, and Iraq, ethnic cleansings are still ongoing. Innocent people killed. And what for?

We can’t change the past, but we can change the present and make a better future. We shouldn’t just remember those who died during the Holocaust, but we should honor them by never ever letting it happen again…

I am a Ukraine-born Karaite with mixed Polish and Russian heritage, currently residing in Poland. I take immense pride in being a father to eight wonderful children and the legal guardian of a child from Ukraine. Additionally, I have the privilege of teaching a group of eleven exceptional children. My political views are syncretic, although I draw inspiration from left-wing, progressive, and socialist ideologies. While I hold strong opinions, I am always open to hearing and considering others' perspectives.

In the past, I worked as a translator, but my present focus lies in advocating for the rights of orphans, foundlings, and other children who lack parental care. Despite facing my own disabilities, I am committed to fighting for the rights of individuals with disabilities. Being a foundling myself, I consider myself fortunate to have found a loving family. This personal experience drives my passion for supporting those in similar circumstances.

Beyond my advocacy work, I have a deep passion for anime, gaming, and TV series. These interests provide me with a source of joy and relaxation. Furthermore, I am a dedicated philanthropist and have completed my studies in social pedagogy. As a young ambassador for the British charity ChildAid to Eastern Europe, I am honored to serve in this role, furthering the organization's mission to support children in need.
