IPN will commemorate Jewish insurgents
Institute of the National Rememberance (Instytut Pamięci Narodowej) would like to commemorate Jewish insurgents, who on 19th April 1943 begun an uprising in Warsaw ghetto.
- We would like to make the comemmeration of Jewish uprising in ghetto to have really common character, and at the same time that it should be the simplest and most straight transmission – explains the IPN chairman in his conversation with Janusz Kurtyk. That is why, besides leaflets and posters, which are going to be distributed by IPN units in whole country from 15th April , in the capital itself 100 billboards, reminding people in Warsaw of bloody fights in Warsaw ghetto, will appear. The leading watchword of IPN action states: “The Courageous on Maccabees’ trail” („Odważni na szlaku Machabeuszy”).
Janusz Kurtyka stressed, that Polish citizens memory, about what kind of people Jewish insurgents were, is plainly an obligation of leading by Janusz Kurtyka national institution. – We are reminding about the struggle, which was thrown back in advance on defeat, but about a heroic struggle that had risen to defence of self dignity and pride – said IPN chairman. – This is obvious, that Jewish remember about it. But we cares deeply to show, that this events are equally important to Polish people, that also Poland remember about the sacrifice and devotion of the insurgents and that we admire them because of their courage.
