Holocaust survivor Lucy Lipiner is an outspoken advocate against antisemitism and attempts to diminish Nazi atrocities against the Jews. The 90-year-old woman is also the author ofLong Journey Home: A Young Girl's Memoir of Surviving the Holocaust, which tells her family’s story of fleeing their home in Poland in 1939 to escape the Nazis.

In a Friday post on X, Lipiner reflected on the Nazis’ attempts to justify Kristallnacht, framing the pogrom as “an acceptable outburst of the people for the sins of the Jew.”

“I see posts today saying the exact same thing about the pogrom in Amsterdam,” the Holocaust survivor wrote. “Believe the woman who has seen it all; we are at the point of no return. Something must be done.”
