Interesting Jewish experience on a city tour in Germany. These questions around memory are pretty important and thought-provoking.
"A year before, I’d gone on two more of these types of #Jewish memorial trips. In Poland, we’d visited #Auschwitz, #Treblinka, and the #WarsawGhetto. In #Prague, we saw the Old #Jewish Quarter, #Theresienstadt, and #Europe’s oldest #synagogue. Here, too, we naturally experienced these cities and tourist sights through the eyes of #Jews. Each monument was viewed and explained, each museum was visited or at least noticed, each chance for lamentation was taken.
But on this city tour through #Dortmund, I noticed something rather peculiar: no Jews. With one exception: me. Oh well, I thought, today, my generation is so trained to be tolerant that it would practically be an advantage to be the only #Jew in a large group."

🔥 THE UPRISING THAT DEFIED THE UNTHINKABLE
July 7
On this day in 1943, the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising erupted — the largest Jewish resistance act of World War II. For nearly a month, around 750 poorly armed fighters held off 20,000+ German troops in the ruins of the Warsaw Ghetto, transforming a death camp into a battlefield. Though ultimately crushed, their defiance became an immortal symbol of courage against tyranny.

Want to learn more about the power of archives?
Check out our lesson on how archival research can become a tool of resistance. Teach students about the power of storykeeping as a form of activism and truth-telling with the 𝙐𝙣𝘽𝙧𝙤𝙠𝙚𝙣 Learning Guide.
𝙐𝙣𝘽𝙧𝙤𝙠𝙚𝙣 weaves together oral history, primary source documents and records, diaries, maps, and archival images to preserve voices that might otherwise have been lost into a multi-sensory experience.
This lesson includes a slideshow of resources from the #RingelblumArchive, a collection of documents from the World War II #WarsawGhetto, hosted at the Jewish Historical Institute in #Warsaw.
This lesson explores how oral history and archival research are not just as academic exercises, but also tools of resistance and truth-telling. Students explore how preserving memory honors those whose stories have been historically silenced. For grades 6-12, adult/higher ed.

The 90-minute film “A Film Unfinished” (“Shtikat Haarchion” / “Geheimsache #Ghettofilm”) shows how the #Warsaw ghetto was used by the Nazis for film work that deliberately contrasted hunger and death with the staged luxury lifestyle of a few Jews. The people who commissioned the material remain unknown to this day.
For a long time, the raw material was uncritically treated as a true “documentary”, until newly discovered film footage, research, and interviews with those affected revealed how meticulously the scenes were staged, often with several takes until the shot was "right."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Film_Unfinished
The film is available online in the media archive of the German "Federal Agency for Civic Education". It has German audio and English subtitles.
Content warning / CW: The film shows people in extreme hunger situations, as well as deceased persons. There is no pixelation or covering of what is shown.

#OccupiedPalestine #Gaza #WarsawGhetto
"'And now we ask: How can you eat, sleep, live? How guilty will you feel in your hearts if you do not move heaven and earth to come to our aid by the only means available to our people and as soon as possible? (...) For the love of God, do something now, and quickly."
This desperate cry for help, quoted by Saul Friedländer in his monumental work 'Nazi Germany and the Jews,' [1] is not new and does not come from the Palestinians in Gaza. It was made 81 years ago by Slovakian rabbi Michael Bar Weissmandl, who was trying to save the Jews of Slovakia from deportation—and death—in Auschwitz by appealing to the Zionist leadership in Palestine and to the American and British governments.
But that was not all. Weissmandl, whose appeals to the Allies to bomb both Auschwitz and the railways leading Slovak Jews to Auschwitz went unanswered, did not mince his words when he addressed them in very harsh terms, as well as the Zionist organization in Palestine, which systematically refrained from assisting Jews in Europe: 'And you—our brothers in Palestine, in all free countries, and you ministers of all these countries—how can you remain silent in the face of this great murder? Silent while thousands upon thousands, now six million Jews, were being murdered. Silent while tens of thousands are still being murdered or are about to be murdered? Their hearts are broken and they implore you for help while lamenting your cruelty. You are brutal and murderers because of the cold-blooded silence with which you observe'.
If the brave Weissmandl goes so far as to call the Zionists and the Anglo-American rulers, who refuse to help the victims of the Holocaust, murderers, then how would he describe the current rulers of countries such as the United States, Germany, France, and so many others who are not content to remain indifferent to Palestinian suffering, but go so far as to arm, finance, and diplomatically support the genocide of the State of Israel against the Palestinians in Gaza?
We already know the answer from those concerned, supported by the cream of neo-fascists and other nostalgics for the Third Reich around the world: 'what is happening in Gaza has nothing to do with the Holocaust, and any comparison is sacrilegious and... anti-Semitic'. And yet, thanks to the relentless efforts and perverse inventiveness of the political successors of those (Menachem Begin, Yitzhak Shamir...) whom Einstein already called 'fascists' and 'terrorists' in 1948, [2] the comparisons are obvious because they are staring us in the face. For example, the one between the Jewish ghetto in Warsaw and the Palestinian ghetto in Rafah, cynically called a 'humanitarian city' (!) that Netanyahu and his accomplices are preparing to cram 600,000 starving Gazans on the brink of death into. And if there are any differences between the two ghettos, they are not necessarily in favor of the Israeli war criminals’ plan: the Rafah ghetto is already a field of ruins, unlike the Warsaw ghetto, which was only destroyed at the end and during the crushing of the heroic revolt of its last defenders. For the rest, it is the same organized famine and the same genocidal intentions and practices of the supremacist executioners who are not afraid to dehumanize their victims (Jews then, Palestinians today), calling them 'subhumans' or 'wild animals' and 'cockroaches that must be crushed...?"

#Gaza has held out longer than the #WarsawGhetto did under almost identical circumstances. Just saying.

The #WarsawGhetto uprising lasted a month. #Gaza has already held out longer than that under near identical conditions.

"As the American tanks drew near, the German soldiers fled. Michael and a friend approached a barn house in the village of Stamsried. A farmer came out, saw them, and brought them hot milk. Michael drank and passed out from starvation and fatigue, waking up in an American ambulance."

A while ago, for one reason or another, I googled “The kindest person who ever lived” and the name of this wonderful man came up. He willingly sacrificed his life to help a group of orphans in the Warsaw Ghetto, and his story brought a lump to my throat and I fought back tears. I’d sadly never heard of him, but thankfully now I have, and so should everyone else.

Sounds like the #WarsawGhetto, doesn't it?
"Even in areas like #Rafah, where the Israeli ground invasion has not reached, #Gaza’s society has been decimated. Its economy no longer exists and basic goods can only be found on the #blackmarket where they cost ten times their prewar price."

“The painful commonality between the tragedies of Gaza and the Warsaw Ghetto is the utter disregard for human lives in a war setting by the citizens of even the most enlightened countries. Such disregard is so much more painful when it is committed by ‘our own people,’ whether it be American soldiers in Vietnam and Iraq or the Israeli soldiers in Gaza.”

Well there you go. The Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto, with their pitiful resources, under constant threat of violence, stamped out a typhus epidemic with public education, distancing, hygiene and ISOLATING people who were sick. Somehow, they never said "Ah, well, it's super contagious so why bother trying?" Makes you want to weep, really. https://www.newscientist.com/article/2249578-how-a-jewish-ghetto-beat-a-typhus-epidemic-during-the-second-world-war/ #covid #LongCOVID #CovidIsNotOver #warsawghetto

It's the anniversary of the start of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. Most of those fighters were members of the Yiddish Bund, a radical Jewish socialist worker's organization sworn to destroy capitalism. Here's me singing their anthem, Di Shvue (The Oath), which they sang at the start of every meeting. "An oath of blood and tears." #yiddish #socialism #anticapitalism #holocaust #warsawghetto https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkxO4pEJ_8Y
