Had a complete out-of-body experience @BFI seeing Jonathan Glazer's The Zone of Interest. Folks, it lives up to expectations. Such a quietly bold, surreal, important visual study of perpetrators that will hopefully get many people to talk about it. Seek it out when it releases !

NEWS // Holocaust memorial at risk:
C20 has applied to list a modernist synagogue in Brighton to save it from demolition.
Its windows have been described as ‘one of the great religious artworks of the twentieth century’ and compared to Picasso’s Guernica.

A lot of us are seeing the sudden, scary resurgence in antisemitism and asking “what is going on? where did this come from?”

Let me offer a partial explanation (1 / 11):

[The Wiener Holocaust Library @wienerlibrary]

Demands upon the Library continue to increase as we face rising antisemitism, racism, and denial of the Holocaust. Becoming a Library member is one way in which you can help us to continue our important work.

Ronald ‘Ronnie’ Roberts was an Afro-German born in 1921. Following the Nazi takeover of power he experienced increasing racism and in the 1940s was imprisoned in Nazi hard-labour camps until his liberation after #WWII. This #BHM read Ronnie Robert's story: https://t.co/sKDUjAhZux

Heute möchte ich an Charlotte Salomon erinnern, die am 10.10.1943 mit nur 26 Jahren im KZ Auschwitz-Birkenau umgebracht wurde. Sie hat mit ihrem autobiographischen Kunstwerk „Leben? Oder Theater?“ viele Menschen inspiriert, sich mit dem Nationalsozialismus zu beschäftigen. 1/3

It is important to show your research assistants that they also have academic role models

We are deeply concerned by the invasion of Ukraine this morning and the footage of people fleeing their homes in the face of Russian military operations.
History shows us the terrible costs of war and our thoughts are with those who are facing displacement in the coming days.
