A commemorative bilingual plaque with information about Jan Karski was unveiled at Warsaw’s Jan Karski Boulevard on June 23. This simple plaque tells the story of an extraordinary man who risked his life to bring the truth about the Holocaust to the world. You are standing before the Jan Karski Plaque. Jan Karski was a Polish emissary who courageously delivered information about the Nazi occupation of Poland to Allied leaders. This plaque is a reminder of his bravery and unwavering commitment to justice. Karski’s mission was dangerous, but he felt compelled to make the world aware of the horrific atrocities being committed.
He traveled to different countries, sharing his experiences and presenting the ‘Karski Report’, a chilling account of the genocide unfolding in occupied Poland. Despite facing disbelief and resistance, Karski tirelessly advocated for action to be taken to stop the Holocaust. The inscription on the plaque describes Karski as a “righteous among the nations of the world,” and rightly so. We are standing before a monument to an individual who truly made a difference in the face of unimaginable evil. Karski’s legacy lives on, inspiring people to speak out against injustice and to stand up for what is right.
