I have little to write about tonight, really. Maybe a little bit about things I see on tv. I find it interesting that the History Channel is all about exposing the past for what it was, yet they have yet to do a documentary on the Holocaust as it should be taught...chronologically. It is important that people realize that the Holocaust was not about one group with "other victims" who got caust up in the killing of one group. No. The Holocaust is about the hatred of a group pf people against many groups, and all of those groups suffered, some more than others. We have covered up the true meaning of the Holocaust by arguing over these silly semantics scholars keep bringing up.
I wonder how we can redisign the way teachers teach the Holocaust. There has to be a way to present history as it is, as ugly as it is, to everyone, just the way it happened. It happened on a daily basis, lived by millions, one day at a time.
More ideas on this to come.
