This pewter-toned metal pin demonstrates the international Jewish community’s determination to remember the six million Jews who died at the hands of the Nazis while celebrating the new life that emerged from the jaws of death. Inscribed with the Hebrew word “yizkor,” meaning remember,” the motif of budding life from barbed wire honors the Jewish spirit that has transformed history’s greatest tragedy – the Holocaust – into one of history’s greatest miracles, the rebirth of the nation of Israel in the Promised Land.
