From the archives: "We thought of ourselves as being German Jews not Jewish Germans". This quote challenges binary thinking about hyphenated identities. Personal narratives reveal identity as both assertion and resistance & become meditations on belonging beyond national and religious frameworks.

Erstmals nach 1945 sind extrem Rechte zweitstärkste Partei. Das ist bitter, zumal die liberalen Demokratien auch von Putin und Trump in die Zange genommen werden. Für die demokrat. Mehrheit kommt es nun darauf an, pro EU, pro Humanität und pro liberale Demokratie zu streiten.

Came across this testimony @wienerlibrary.bsky.social: »My daughter in law doesn’t like it when I tell them [the grandchildren] stories from the time of the Nazis. ”Let them grow up normal and unburdened by your sad memories“, she begs me.«
