Robert Faurisson’s path-breaking research and the impressive scale of his writings have been a service to humanity. This brave and brilliant scholar will also be remembered as a principled fighter for free speech and free inquiry.
Future generations will one day look back on the way in which powerful enemies hatefully persecuted him as a shameful indictment of this vindictive age.
During his lifetime, Faurisson’s exemplary courage and tenacity were an inspiration to many. His legacy will endure long after his death.
