Answer:

What Wiesel means is that it would be a crime to forget. By forgetting the actions of the Nazis, we are contributing to the pain caused. If we forget we are letting the Nazis get away with what they did without facing any consequences

his meaning behind those words are saying if we pretend that hundreds of people lost their lives during the Holocaust then what are we? racist bigoted Nazis? are you a person with such hate just like those people? or do you fight for injustice? if you fight for injustice than you shall never forget and always remember what happen to those people who lost their lives to hate in the 1940s
