This news story aired last night in Idaho.

A reader purchased the Sarah Dessen book "Just Listen" and that's where the mystery started.

By any chance if someone can help identify the people in the pictures, KTVB has a contact page.

Probably a niche political interest, but every election I watch the polls to see if Idaho votes to redraw their third congressional district which only covers the Amigara Township and a few small farming communities.

“if we lie to ourselves about history, then we end up with these big lies in the present” — Timothy Snyder, PhD, Richard C. Levin Professor of History at Yale University, specializing in the history of fascism in 20th-century Europe.

Working my way through NPR Throughline's back catalogue and just hit the 2022 repost of this look at fascism from January 2021. Unfortunately, it continues to be timely and insightful.

A few points that struck me this listen-through:

There were 15 years between the post WWI German equivalent of the Big Lie and the rise to power it facilitated

"In Poland in 1922, there was a presidential election. It was carried out in Parliament rather than directly. But in that presidential election, a candidate won basically because he had the votes of the center left and the votes of the national minorities. It was a narrow victory, but it was a clear victory. That victory was treated by the right-wing press as illegitimate. Abuse was heaped upon him. And a person who was, let's say, mentally vulnerable assassinated that president of Poland."

"There's a reason why you haven't heard of 1922 in Poland. And it's not just that it was 99 years ago and in a different country. It's that in the writing of Polish history itself, the story, important as it was, was never really treated as a serious turning point. It was treated as an aberration. And because it was treated as an aberration, people didn't take seriously enough the intolerance and, in this case, the anti-Semitism that had a lot to do with the event."
