pickA truly beautiful book. This is a stunningly wonderful work of scholarship. The photograph around which the book is centred is utterly heartbreaking, and a real human look into what is often forgotten amongst the unfathomable horror of the holocaust. A breathtaking look at what history scholarship can and should be.

Happy Indigenous People‘s Day. The map of WV lands courtesy of an interactive map on savetheboundarywaters.com . Braiding Sweetgrass is a non fiction book I love and thanks to #lpmbc I read Love After The End- a book I absolutely loved and recommend. The third book was read by a local book club and recommended so i bought it this weekend. Please consider sharing your favorite books by Indiginous authors #Indiginouspeoplesday
pickThe book is based on a photograph brought to the Holocaust Museum in DC. There were so many important & sad points made throughout the book. There are so many people & families that were murdered that historians feel that they still don‘t have the full story. That there has been so much whitewashing & pushback on researchers. Making it difficult to access archives or digger further into the past. My grandmothers family left Poland in the early
ARE YOU DISTRACTED ENOUGH YET?
Today‘s #ranttime is about how this man has to have his fingers in every. Single. Pie. Just because he thinks he can. And to distract us.
I don‘t care what the Washington football team is called. If he wants to change the name again, how about the Epsteins? Or the Orangeskins?
This regime doesn‘t exactly have a great record when it comes to Native Americans or respecting the city of Washington either. News links⬇️
The author explains her commitment to unpacking the found photograph detailing the murder (at first glance) of a young boy & a woman,both Jewish in Miropol, Ukraine, 10/13/1941. @Amiable Thank you so much for reviewing this! Once I read your review I knew i had to read it. #blameitonlitsy #antifabookclub #readingispolitical #overcomingevilempires
In 2009,the author was searching in the archives of the US Holocaust Memorial Museum for Nazi documentation that might result in the prosecution of the notorious Bernhard Frank,(Himmler protege)known to be alive in Germany.Two Prague journalists interrupted her to show her this photograph taken on 10/13/1941, in Miropol,Ukraine.This find prompted her to undertake a quest to answer the questions this photograph seemed to be asking of her.
Completed ✅
