You wanna write about the Holocaust?

So, I got this wild idea while watching documentaries about the Holocaust tonight. Which, if you’ve been following for awhile, you’ve probably realized that Salome’s author (that would be me, lol) is a Holocaust historian. And you also probably know that I get very testy about portrayals of that narrative that romanticize the suffering of human beings (having lost my family in Stutthof and Majdanek, perhaps that’s equally unsurprising.)

This all lead me to an idea: make a post full of resources that benefit people trying to write a Holocaust narrative for legitimate purposes. If you’re are trying to have a kissypoo love story set in Auschwitz, though, please for the love of everything excuse yourself out of my post.

If you’re here because you are writing a character who has historical ties to that event, for one reason or another, or is the descendant of survivors? Well friend, YOU GON’ LEARN TODAY. And I mean, some of this is recycled from my list on Judaism-based resources, but I’m gonna get specific as fuck for y’all.

First off, let’s get a couple important bits out of the way.

UPDATED: 3/13/2017

You don’t know about Judaism at all and don’t know where to start?

The Kaifeng Stone Inscriptions: The Legacy of the Jewish Community in Ancient China, Tiberiu Weisz

Are you going to explore the idea of how the Nazis used scientific racism against the Jews in your work? Well, it started way before the Nazis, who imported it from the Americans and Europeans so get studyin’:

Scientific Racism: The Eugenics of Social Darwinism (F)

The Human Zoo: Science’s Dirty Secret (F)

Are you still thinking about making a love story or some other asinine plot set in the Holocaust narrative? Do you know that distorts the memory of my people’s worst atrocity? Maybe you should learn why pushing fictional stories that minimize the suffering endured by its victims is an horrendously bad idea:

How do you do event marketing after GDPR?, Claire Trévien

There is a lot of confusion around still on how GDPR will affect B2B companies big and small, and what steps marketers can take towards making their data more compliant. This is something I have been particularly thinking about ahead of an event we are co-organizing with Kingpin next month, titled Digital Privacy in the B2B Landscape.

Events in a pre-GDPR world often involved these scenarios:

Get your data sold to all sorts of vendors and affiliates of the organiser, whether you’re attending or exhibiting at said event. I am still receiving spam from events we exhibited at two years ago (and in spite of multiple emails asking not to be spammed further).

Get landed with the business cards your sales team have collected and told to add them to the mailing list, regardless of whether the mailing list’s content is relevant or not.

Yes, events were (and still are) goldmines, for filling up the top of the funnel, but as Maria Heckel reported at the #CIMDigital summit last September, tactics like this led 51% of consumers to feel their data has been misused, with 57% not trusting brands to use data responsibly.

As opt-in is key, I think we will see an increase in:

Gated content, where visitors will have to opt in to sharing their details in order to view slides, videos, reports, etc. These will probably feature an unticked checkbox giving permission to be added to a mailing list.

Pop ups inviting visitors to add themselves to the mailing list on event-related content, such as blog posts.

Physical sign ups at events, or tablet/laptop stations with staff inviting visitors to enter their details for mailing list purposes

In all those cases, double opt-in should be applied to make sure the email wasn’t entered erroneously. This means that the visitors who have signed up, will receive a confirmation email, and be asked to confirm their subscription.

Educate your sales team to favour social selling techniques over dumping new contacts into a mailing list. Buy them a copy of Tim Hughes and Matt Reynolds’ Social Sellingfor practical tips. Essentially, they should get into the good habit of connecting with prospects on social media, and creating and sharing content that develops them as a brand.

Start auditing your mailing list now, particularly those for whom you don’t have traceable opt-in proof. Now is a great time to send them an email inviting them to confirm their subscription. This is often a positive way to renew contact with your prospects and clients.

It might even be worth starting afresh to a new mailing system and list – a terrifying prospect for some, but one guaranteed to ensure your list only features engaged and interested readers.

Is this the end of the world?

No, in fact I think this is a really positive step towards focusing on quality rather than quantity. Do this right and you will improve your relationship with your prospects immeasurably. Here’s a few things you should start focusing on now (if you aren’t already):

Create great content – by which I mean content that is actually valuable and useful to your audience. Think of every aspect of the event that will be of interest to them, and cover it in a variety of media and angles.

Put some of this content on a gated page – slides and videos of the event in particular work well, but also reports from the event.

Add pop ups to your non-gated content inviting readers to join your mailing list

Create hyper-focused mailing lists, rather than one-size fits all. I.e if you are doing an event on cyber security, have a specific mailing list for cyber security content, rather than dumping them in a manufacturing mailing list.

Privity and Near Privity in a Professional Malpractice Setting

On Lam v Arnold Montag Architect 2019 NY Slip Op 30712(U) March 13, 2019 Supreme Court, Kings County Docket Number: 522413/2017 Judge: Pamela L. Fisher discusses the relationship between plaintiffs and sub-contractors of their architects and other professionals, and the requirement of privity in a breach of contract case.

“On March 4, 2013, BTE entered into a contract with nonparty JNE Development (JNE) to provide architectural and engineering services for the construction of a two-family duplex located at 1582A Pacific Street in Brooklyn (property). Subsequently, on May 7, 2014, Montag Architects entered into a written agreement with nonparties Yaniv Zohar and GHIB, LLC (collectively, developers) to perform services in connection with the Preparation of Architectural Plans & Expediting to Supercede Previous Applicant” for the property (see Montag Architects moving papers, exhibit C, affidavit of Arnold Montag [Montag affidavit] at ¶ 2 and exhibit C-1, Montag Architects contract with the nonparty developers at 1).

In November 2014, plaintiffs purchased the real property. Plaintiffs contend that the purchased property has numerous design and construction defects. Plaintiffs further contend that the work performed by defendants BTE and later Montag Architects was defective, and, as a result of BTE’s and Montag Architects’ negligence and malpractice, plaintiffs have incurred $2,000,000 damages.”

“Based on the contracts submitted, Montag Architects and BTE have established that the plaintiffs were not in privity of contract with either defendant. However, plaintiffs do not even allege that they were in contract with either Montag Architects or BTE. Instead, plaintiffs allege that they are intended beneficiaries under the agreement between Montag Architects and the developers. To establish that they were intended third-party beneficiaries, plaintiffs must establish

“(1) the existence of a valid and binding contract between other parties, (2) that the contract was intended for his/her benefit and (3) that the benefit to him/her is sufficiently immediate, rather than incidental, to indicate the assumption by the contracting parties of a duty to compensate him if the benefit is lost” (State of California Public Employees’ Retirement System v Sherman & Sterling, 95 NY2d 427, 435 [2000] ; Burns Jackson Miller Summit & Spitzer v Lindner, 59 NY2d 314, 336 [1983];Cahill v Lazarski,.226 AD2d 572, 573 [2d Dept 1996]).

“Under this analysis, a professional may be held liable for negligence or malpractice even when they are not retained by plaintiff if a relationship exists between the parties that is so close as to approach privity (see Ossining Union Free School Dist. v Anderson LaRocca Anderson, 73 NY2d 417, 425 [I989]). To establish such a relationship, there must be a showing that (1) the professional was aware that their work would be used for a particular purpose, (2) upon which a known party was intended to rely, and (3) that there was some conduct on the part of the professional linking them to the plaintiff (see Caprer v Nussbaum, 36 AD3d 176, 196 [2d Dept, 2006])”

“Although plaintiffs allege that they are intended beneficiaries, they fail to allege facts sufficient to establish a relationship approaching privity. Plaintiffs were neither parties to, nor express third-party beneficiaries of, either contract at issue. In fact, the contract between Montag Architects and the nonparty developers specifically excludes the creation of a contractual relationship with third parties (see Dormitory Auth. of the State of N.Y. v Samson Constr. Co., 30 NY3d 704, 710 [2018]; Fourth Ocean Putnam Corp. v Interstate Wrecking Co., 66 NY2d 38, 44 [1985]). Plaintiffs rely on a telephone call conducted with defendant Montag; however this conversation alone is insufficient to establish a relationship approaching privity”

Jubilate Agno

Jubilate Agno is a religious poem written by Christopher Smart between 1759 and 1763, while hospitalized in London for lunacy (a very 12th house experience). Christopher Smart was born with Jupiter in Sagittarius. Note all the animals in the excerpt below.
