Description

How is the Holocaust represented in the world of social media? #holocaust gives one possible answer by documenting hundreds of real, unfiltered images that are “tagged” with the word “holocaust” on Instagram. We witness how the Holocaust transformed into a stage for Internet memes, pretty photographs of Shoah memorials, and anti-Semitism.
