Ep. 64. I had a really interesting chat that shows how no one could remain untouched by the Nazi state and how many were deeply indifferent. Check it out!
New episode is out! I talked with Nicholas Milton about the extraordinary (and chilling) life of the "Birdman of Auschwitz," an orithologist who drifted along the Nazi currents of atrocity. https://t.co/1KEgapP4Wh

New episode of the @HolocaustPod just dropped! This discussion of Yiddish and the Holocaust was SO interesting. I guarantee you you will find it amazing, too!
In this episode, I talk with Hannah Pollin-Galay about the effect of the Holocaust on Yiddish. How does a language work during a genocide? How did Jews use language to make sense of the Holocaust? This is a really fascinating conversation!

Relevant now more than ever.
In this episode, we explore the concept of dehumanization with philosopher David Livingstone Smith. What IS dehumanization? Did Holocaust perpetrators really believe their victims were subhuman/less than human/inhuman? How do we come to dehumanize? https://t.co/CxshR72ikz

I think the latest episode of the @HolocaustPod is particularly necessary in these times. We look at dehumanization as a concept and practice.
