Yolocaust: selfies taken at the Holocaust Memorial
by Rob Beschizza from on (#29FN6)
Israeli author Shahak Shapira found a use for foolish and disrespectful selfies taken at the Holocaust Memorial in Berlin.
A newly unveiled online project called "Yolocaust" delivers a stinging message for those who not only act disrespectfully at a Berlin Holocaust memorial but capture their behavior and share it with their friends on social media. The project, which debuted on Wednesday, was visited by so many Germans that the computer server hosting it crashed, according to reports in the German media, where it was covered with great interest.
You only live once, but we die twice: once when the body fails, the second when we are forgotten.
