As the child of Holocaust survivors, I&rsquo;ve spent a lot of time looking for source material I can rely on, and I&rsquo;m sharing it here in case it&rsquo;s useful to someone else doing the same.</p>\n<p>As the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum explains, the <a href=\"https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/introduction-to-the-holocaust\">Holocaust</a> was the systematic, state-sponsored murder of approximately six million Jews by Nazi Germany and its collaborators. The Nazis, who took power in Germany in January 1933, considered Jews a racial threat to be eliminated. In 1933, Europe&rsquo;s Jewish population stood at over nine million; by 1945, nearly two out of every three European Jews had been killed. Other victims of Nazi persecution included an estimated 200,000 Roma, and at least 200,000 disabled patients murdered under the Nazi euthanasia program.</p>\n<h2 id=\"curated-holocaust-archives--libraries\">Curated Holocaust Archives &amp;
