Victims of communistic regime?


Recommended Posts

That's for "monuments which is dedicated to the uprisings against the communist regime", but what GeoLog81 described doesn't sound like an uprising.

 

My suggestion is Human Migration Monuments. The description does say that it includes "both voluntary migration and involuntary migration".

Many Dutch victims were up uprising against the German regime in WWII and there deportations from Westerbork to Auschwitz.

Westerbork is here a 5 miles away.

If they did not uprise against that, they would have live longer and has no monument here in The Netherlands.

 

Thats why my first idea was my link in post 2. They are victims of .... deportations here.

Very interesting. It may be possible that GeoLog81's monument could fit into both categories, depending on the circumstances surrounding the deportation.

Human Migration Monuments

 

Description:

This category is to Waymark monuments to Human migration and pay homage to all human beings who for one reason or another had to migrate and face the difficulties associated to build a new home away from home.

 

In that case, those people were deported not to find new home but to be imprisoned or killed, and they even hasn't got an opportunity to resist to communistic regime (the deportations was the part of the war, started by Germany and Soviet Union).

 

So maybe general WWII monument, because they were victims of 2nd World War?
