Auschwitz "did not fall from the sky". Auschwitz took time. The industrial murder was at the end of a long process which began with coining the idea. Words & propaganda reinforced stereotypes & prejudice. Legal exclusion and dehumanization was followed by escalating violence.

FYI on the VA book banning case: the judge will decide if these books can be *sold or owned* by minors *or adults.* If the books are ruled "obscene," not only will booksellers not be able to sell them, readers can't own them, & if you do either, you risk criminal prosecution.

I checked his voting record for yuks, and for someone who yaps about politics, he’s only voted twice in 20 years.


Hello Audible subscribers and audiobook listeners out there! Audiobooks [AB] are a really handy way to absorb a book without sitting down to read. I, for one, would be lost without them. But... there is an unfortunate truth about Audible which is virtually unknown. THREAD

There's a phenomenon I actually see extremely commonly when literature is used to teach history to middle school and high school students. Let's call it "pajamafication."
