Had a wonderful experience at the University of #Wrocław’s Summer School on #Holocaust literature & film. Incredibly well-organized w/ thoughtful lectures, engaging workshops, a visit to #Gross-Rosen concentration camp & time in #Jewish Wrocław at the old synagogue & dinner at Jewish restaurants

The next #Stolpersteine in #Jersey are for Jean and Marcel Rossi, deported for refusing to work for the Germans and having Italian ancestry. They experienced #Gross-Rosen, #Blechhammer and #Hersbruck concentration camps. Marcel died on a forced march.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

Looking forward to @soniapurnell.bsky.social’s talk on her new book #Kingmaker at the IWM London

Many thanks to Dan Stone for a thought-provoking lecture on the psychoanalysis of survival in early concentration camp literature for the #Holocaust&Memory seminar at @ochjs.bsky.social! Thanks also to the attendees for a lively discussion. We look forward to seeing you again at our next event!

Heard an insightful and engaging lecture about memory politics and restitution in Germany from @mrothberg.bsky.social at the V&A this week. If you haven’t read his work on #ImplicatedSubjects yet, I cannot recommend it enough! #HolocaustStudies #MemoryStudies

This really hits home for me, as someone who is writing a book about American and German far-right extremism. How are we supposed to proceed with our day-to-day research and writing when we have no idea what the world will look like? Or whether our topics will be censored?
