Holocaust knowledge among Millennials and Gen Z 

As I am beginning my time in college, I have worried about Holocaust denial. This is a visual representation of the worrying lack of Holocaust knowledge among millennials and Gen Z sourced from a 2020 survey from the Claims Conference

Here is a quote from Deborah Lipstadt, former professor of modern Jewish history and Holocaust studies at Emory University, where I attend, and current Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism:
