Not to mention that the IHRA definitely is widely rejected by many scholars of antisemitism!

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

You need to understand how crazy this antisemitism bill is that just passed the House with wide bipartisan approval. The law requires the Department of Education to adopt the definition of antisemitism provided by something called the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance.

@Harrylegg1998 Check Roseman, A Past in Hiding; Rothberg, Multidirectional Memory, introduction; and The stuff of testimony (Caruth, Greenspan, etc.)

[Jonathan Lanz @JonathanLanz3]

@EFischberger I’m not sure that using Isaac Kook to support your POV is the best move…

[Jonathan Lanz @JonathanLanz3]

@Harrylegg1998 In my early BA thesis days I once absent-mindedly used the term “Reichskristallnacht.” You should’ve seen the look on my Germanist advisor’s face!

[Jonathan Lanz @JonathanLanz3]

Also- what other work of fiction gets the same scrutiny? Even other Holocaust films like “Life is Beautiful.”

[Jonathan Lanz @JonathanLanz3]

Critique the movie all you want (and we should), but its impact in inspiring interest in the Holocaust remains unmatched among every group of students I’ve encountered.

[Dr Philip W Blood @HistorianBlood]

@LegaciesofPast Understand but … I think the film and the book had a far more important impact on advancing interest in the Holocaust than many of us academics are prepared to accept. It certainly achieved an instant emotional grip unlike more high brow films.

I can’t put my finger on it, but this graph makes absolutely no sense to me.

Mississippi’s graduation rate has reached another all-time high!

Thank you to all of Mississippi’s parents, teachers, and students for breaking yet another education record. Keep up the good work!

This is the final word on the current conflict in Israel and Palestine.

@jazzydomenique @andrew_i_port Fair, but if this slide was used in a graduate seminar (in any context but to critique it) the presenter would be slammed

[Jonathan Lanz @JonathanLanz3]

@jazzydomenique @andrew_i_port “Traditional authoritarian German patterns” is a phrase straight out of the Sonderweg era and deserves no place in academic studies of German histories. It’s ahistorical and only serves to be provocative.

@realHunterEstes Shame.

[StanleyBurtonCentre @UoLSBC]

[Georgia 。 @MissParsisson]

Had a wonderful day at the Carceral Spaces conference today! I presented this morning on the Rwandan Schoolhouse as a carceral space and have met some wonderful scholars today. I’m looking forward to the final presentations tomorrow! @UoLSBC @kar_hansen @jcret1 @JonathanLanz3

@RubleHistory @tnflorvil @gdrhistoria The classics have been so valuable to my work as a grad student. Maier’s Recasting Bourgeois Europe remains one of the most impactful works from my comps list.

[Richard R @RaberRichard]

A compelling, and thought-provoking article from @JonathanLanz3 in @JournalGenocide. Give it a read.
