SUMMARY:National Chocolate Cake Day
DESCRIPTION:National Chocolate Cake Day celebrates the cake more people favor. And more often than not\, we celebrate our special occasions like anniversaries\, birthdays and weddings with cake. Why not enjoy chocolate cake on January 27th every year? \n\n\n \n\n#ChocolateCakeDay\n\nIn America\, chocolate was consumed primarily as a beverage until the 1830s or 40s. Chocolate cakes\, as we think of them today\, mostly did not exist then.  According to the Dover Post\, the chocolate cake was born in 1765 when a doctor and a chocolate maker teamed up in an old mill.  They ground up cocoa beans between huge millstones to make a thick syrup. The liquid was poured into molds shaped like cakes\, which were meant to be transformed into a beverage.  A popular Philadelphia cookbook author\, Eliza Leslie\, published the earliest chocolate cake recipe in 1847 in The Lady’s Receipt Book.  Unlike chocolate cakes we know today\, this recipe used chopped chocolate.  Other cooks of the time such as Sarah Tyson Rorer and Maria Parloa all made contributions to the development of the chocolate cake and were prolific authors of cookbooks. \nThe first boxed cake mix was created by a company called O. Duff and Sons in the late 1920s. Betty Crocker released their first dry cake mixes in 1947. \n\n\n \nHOW TO OBSERVE CHOCOLATE CAKE DAY\nWhen it comes to food holidays\, we know how to celebrate. This one is no different. Have some cake. Share it with someone else. Visit your favorite bakery and give them some credit\, too. Or\, if you have some mean baking skills\, show them off! We want to see them\, too. That means\, share your recipes\, take some pictures\, make a video and show off those delicious\, chocolatey cakes! We love how you celebrate these days\, so celebrate them with us! \nSource Link

SUMMARY:Holocaust Remembrance Day
DESCRIPTION:Holocaust Remembrance Day – Each year on January 27th\, the world remembers one of the most horrific events in modern history. This tragic event is known as the Holocaust. The holocaust occurred during WWII when Nazi Germany killed millions of innocent victims. The day is also known as Holocaust Remembrance Day. \n\n\n \n#HolocaustRemembranceDay\nNazi Germany is one of the evilest regimes that ever existed. They persecuted and killed millions of people in just under four years. One group in particular that suffered were those of the Jewish faith. It is believed that six million Jews were killed during the Holocaust. The Nazis’ persecution of the Jews became a genocide. \nGenocide occurs when those of a particular ethnic group is deliberately killed. However\, the Nazis killed more than just Jews. Hundreds of thousands of other groups of people died under the evil regime. These included: \n\n7 million Soviet civilians\n3 million Soviet prisoners of war\n1.8 million Polish civilians\n312\,000 Serb civilians\nUp to 250\,000 people with disabilities\nUp to 250\,000 Gypsies\nAround 1\,900 Jehovah Witnesses\nPossibly thousands of homosexuals\n\nMost Jews died in concentration camps. The most notorious concentration camp is Auschwitz\, where approximately one million Jews died. While some of the Jews in the concentration camps died from disease or starvation\, others died in the gas chambers. Other groups of people were forced to live in ghettos where they died of sickness or starvation. Still\, others were rounded up\, shot\, and buried in mass graves. \nMany famous books and movies have been produced about the holocaust. One of the most famous books is Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl. The book is a real-life account of the two years that Anne Frank and her Dutch family hid from the Nazis. The family was discovered and deported to a concentration camp. Anne was 15 years old when she died in the camp from typhus. Other books include The Hiding Place by Corrie Ten Boom\, The Boy in the Striped Pajamas by John Boyne\, and Born Survivors by Wendy Holden. Movies include Schindler’s List\, The Reader\, Denial\, and The Devil’s Arithmetic. \nThere are many other works\, such as theater productions\, music\, and poetry. Many of the works were created by victims and survivors of the holocaust. Other works commemorate the many heroes who helped save thousands of Jews and other victims from certain death. \n\n\n \nHOW TO OBSERVE HOLOCAUST REMEMBRANCE DAY\nMany events are held throughout the world to commemorate this solemn day. The United Nations hosts a Holocaust memorial ceremony. The ceremony includes testimonies by Holocaust survivors\, special music\, and memorial prayers. There are also photographic exhibits\, panel discussions\, film screenings\, and book signings. Sadly\, there are some that try to deny the holocaust ever happened. This is one more reason to take part in this day. If the holocaust is forgotten or denied\, it will be easier for history to repeat itself. Share this day on social media with #HolocaustRemembranceDay or #NeverForget. \nHOLOCAUST REMEMBRANCE DAY HISTORY\nOn January 24\, 2005\, the United Nations General Assembly marked the 60th anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi concentration camps. Later that year on November 1\, the UN General Assembly designated January 27th as the International Day of Commemoration in Memory of the Victims of the Holocaust. It is also referred to as Holocaust Remembrance Day. It was on January 27th in 1945 that Soviet troops liberated the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. \nSource Link
