“Stand Together and Unite” by the Switch It Project
This song was inspired by the 2021 Holocaust Memorial Day theme of “Being a light in the Darkness”. Young musicians from the Switch It project worked together to compose the music and write the lyrics, as a contribution to Hartlepool Youth Service’s event led by a group of young people named Stand Together. The event took place on 27th January 2021.
All of the work was completed during the C19 pandemic lockdowns in December 2020 and January 2021. Young people were unable to meet in person to write, rehearse or record, this was all done online with support from the Switch It team; the recordings were made individually on young people’s phones and edited together by Switch It’s Lead Musician...

The theme for Holocaust Memorial Day 2021 ‘Be the Light in the Darkness’ encourages us to reflect on the depths humanity can sink to, but also the ways in which people have resisted that darkness to be ‘the light’ and be an ’upstander’. We began researching those people who were upstanders during the Holocaust. This is a short video about one such person - Sophie Scholl. Find out more about Sop...

Through the Wire by HMG Hartlepool

This song was inspired by Frank Lavin, son of the late Wilf Lavin, and the little known fact that part-time soldiers of the Durham Light Infantry helped in the liberation of Bergen Belsen in April 1945. The song is a two-way narrative split between the thoughts of a soldier and those of a young woman he is liberating. Lyrics: Who's that girl with eyes of stone, A long long way, away from home, ...

    Whenever anyone says that the human race is evil at its core and quotes the horrors we are capable of.....I always tell them to check out the life of Nickolas Winton.... He was a stockbroker by day and forger and briber by night..... he forged the official letterhead of the legitimate refugee ministry of Czechoslovakia and put his name as director....he forged paperwork for the children of desperate parents, he bribed the people who issued exit visas for Czech citizens to stamp the paperwork, The number of descendants of those he saved is well over 15000 He truly deserves the title of Sir Nickolas Winton......

    In a world such as ours, (now, with 'refugee issues' in 2018.).this story is especially heart stirring - to the point of tears. (In fact, I cannot get through any of these videos about courageous Sir Nicholas without unashamedly weeping) . We say in my family, "Stop minding your own business", which evokes a similar spirit as 'don't stand by'. Step up, and do the right thing. Whenever life challenges you to do it. Sometimes a minor act of kindness will cover a small palette, sometimes one, much larger. But the after-effect can change the personal destinies of so many lives. A lesson for us all. God bless.

    This is a man we should all subscribe to. A man with compassion, and empathy. A man with the stubbornness and tenacity to not give up. What a beautiful soul. I absolutely do not measure up. My pathetic attempts (donate here, give there) do not even count when I look at what this man has done. If we truly care it's time to step up to the plate and show it.

      Nicholas Winton depended on people such as you to do what he did. He had to raise money to save those children as well as finding them homes. His genius and greatness was organisation, but it also was teamwork. You need to keep doing what you are doing - it’s not as glamorous but it is just as essential. So thank you.

      +Emmanual Didier I understand your sentiment. I didn't mean the Orthodox Jewish people, certainly I'm not. Most of the Jewish population in the world and the land now they occupied and colonized so called Israel today were from Eastern Europe. They, were the Khazars who dwelt in the land of Gog and Magog (650-1016EC), converted en masse to Judaism and generationally followers of Judaism. Originated from the region of Caucasus, a land once known as Khazaria empire who later broke up through invasion of Christian and Islam empires (Google- Kazaria:Jew this week). They flocked some part of the Northern Europe, Russia, Lithuania, Poland and later moved across Germany and they are known today as the Ashkenazi Jews. They have absolutely neither historic nor genetic connection, nor were they originated from the ancient land of Egypt or Palestine. The Jews are a very proud people and do you think for a second, they would allow anybody and everybody hijack their birthright as "the chosen people"? Therefore the term antisemitism then would be void of meaning, based on misapprehension shared by both the killers(Hitler and his regime of terrors) and their victims. Further reading for a better understanding please read either one of these titles and they can be bought @Amazon.com in paperback; The 13th Tribes by Arthur Koestler and The Invention of the Jewish People by Shlomo Sand.
