Recently, I had an amazing, eye-opening visit to the Niagara Falls Underground Museum – and met its extraordinary founder, Saladin Allah.

This museum, which tells the story of Underground Railroad freedom seekers and abolitionists, is a must visit when you’re in the area.

In this week of National Holocaust Remembrance, we remember the 6 million Jews murdered by Nazis and their collaborators, and the millions who were persecuted and killed. The courage of survivors and their families is a living rebuke to those who tried to extinguish their future.
