12 March 1939 | A French Jewish boy, Roger Portigheis, was born in Nice.
He arrived at Auschwitz on 20 December 1943 in a transport of 850 Jews deported from Drancy. He was among 505 people murdered in a gas chamber after the selection.
@auschwitzmuseum Dear Roger, may the world always remember your unfortunately all too short life - so that a fate like yours can hopefully never be repeated. 🖤🕯️
@auschwitzmuseum 🕯️RIP Roger. It boggles my mind that the forces that are capable of killing children are still active and growing in the world today. Will mankind never learn?
