Witnessing Auschwitz

Our trio of American explorers in Poland ends with a somber visit to the Auschwitz-Berkenau museum and grounds. Truly a place of shock, silence and wonder. We all wonder if this could possibly happen again.

We decided to add a visit to the Memorial and Museum Auschwitz-Birkenau as a final point of interest on our genealogical trip to Poland. It was about an hour and a half cab ride north of Krakow. As you can imagine, touring a concentration camp is not a pleasant task, but it was an important one for a trip themed around life and death. All of our sources suggested purchasing tour tickets well in…

Halina Silber, a Holocaust survivor who was number 16 rescued by the legendary Oskar Schindler died this week at the age of 93. In 2015 speaking at a holocaust remembrance event in Baltimore she said “You are the last generation to hear of our suffering and the miracles by which we survived the Holocaust”. “Many of the Holocaust survivors have already passed away and so, when the rest of us will be gone, we hope that you will keep reminding the world of our past”.

The memory of the Holocaust is fading. soon, there will be no more survivors to tell the story. It's our duty to share and make sure the memory is not forgotten. Halina, we pledge to speak out and remind the world, Never Again!!!

May Halina's memory forever be a blessing.

Buster (1988). Based on the story of Ronald Christopher "Buster" Edwards (Phil Collins), one of the thieves involved in "The Great Train Robbery" of 1963.

This sure is! A movie! A really odd take on a true life violent crime, it never seems to know how seriously it wants to take itself which isn't great when it veers into such naked racism and misogyny in it's second half. Just a pretty unpleasant story, and one told in a way that looks made-for-tv (derogatory). 2/10.

The writer Philip Gourevitch complained: “Schindler’s list depicts the Nazi’s slaughter of Polish Jewry almost entirely through German eyes”. I see this in John Boyne’s repulsive book The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas too, which has become the most popular text for teaching the Shoah.

Spielberg's Schindler's List

Its hero is Bruno, the son of a Nazi like Göth. He is a tiny Oskar Schindler. Gourevitch adds, and I think he is right: “The mindless critical hyperbole which has greeted Schindler’s List suggests that powerful spectacle continues to be more beguiling than human and historical authenticity — and that the psychology of the Nazis is a bigger draw than the civilization of the people they murdered.”

That is true, too. Schindler’s Jews are terrorised people who cannot be whole. They are a cringing mass, with none of the intellectual or spiritual sophistication of the protagonists which is insane when you consider who did what to whom. The critic Liel Leibovitz said the film was, “the least Jewish in sensibility” of any film about the Shoah he had seen.

This was the director Stanley Kubrick’s response: “Think that’s about the Holocaust? That was about success, wasn’t it? The Holocaust is about six million people who get killed. Schindler’s List is about 600 who don’t. Anything else?”
