Abstract
ABSTRACTThe paper critically discusses the various types of engagements young people are having around Holocaust remembrance on Instagram, specifically using the hashtag #Auschwitz. Although this dialogue is not straightforward or without issue, we argue that young people’s online engagements with sites of trauma – in this case Instagram and #Auschwitz – opens important avenues for debates on Holocaust remembrance, but also a space where images continue to generate visibility of the horrors of the Holocaust for future generations. Importantly, we maintain that social media can give young people voice and place in debates, which they may feel they cannot be part of in more formal contexts.
