When local councils in Saxony push to remove or relocate Stolpersteine (memorial "stumbling stones"), they practice historical revisionism. Claiming that removing these stones protects victims from being "stepped on" is pure cynicism. These small brass plaques force us to pause in our everyday lives and confront the atrocities committed on our own streets. Erasing them from public sight is a deliberate attempt to make remembrance invisible and soften the crimes of the past.
