=='''Jewzillians Statement about Berlin'''==
Some Berlin monuments, memorials, and nearby locations document history of the Holocaust. These locations are of very somber events, and may impact your fellow Mozillians in myriad ways. We, as Jewish Mozillians (Jewzillians), ask that:
* You respect the gravity of the somber events if you decide to visit these locations.
* When you take photos at these locations, respect the somber events that led to their creation. It may help guide your behavior if you imagine they are memorializing your own relatives. For example, please do not take silly selfies at the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memorial_to_the_Murdered_Jews_of_Europe wikipedia page about that monument]).
* You recognize that different Jewish people may have different needs while visiting Berlin. Some may ''not'' want to talk about the Holocaust, some may ''not'' want to visit these locations, whereas some may want support in processing these events through discussion and visits. This is, of course, not limited to Jews, as millions of people were murdered during the Holocaust, including LGBTQIA+ people, people with disabilities, people of Romani descent, political victims and others as well.
