from Part I - Heroes and Martyrs
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 16 November 2020

It did so in the name of anti-fascist solidarity, and survivors of many political persuasions rallied to its ranks. Under FNDIRP’s aegis, a rough dozen camp memorials were erected in a corner of Père-Lachaise cemetery in Paris, the first of which, dedicated to Auschwitz victims, was dedicated in 1949.
