HISTORY

Escape to Sobibor?

Do we visit holocaust sites for the history, or just for thrill of the ride? I take a closer look at the "architecture of terror", so you don't have to.

On Ordinary Men.

I visited Międzyrzec to trace the route of the October 1942 deportations, and look at the concept of "cumulative radicalisation": On Ordinary Men.

Stepping Stones.

Following the Lublin Memorial Trail on a freezing November afternoon. With one foot in the past and one in the present: Stepping Stones.

On Desecration.

For me, visiting historical holocaust sites is an essential, personal act that ensures the memory of the holocaust endures and serves as a powerful reminder of the consequences of hatred and intolerance: On Desecration.

This was Majdanek.

There is something uniquely consistent about Majdanek: it has a mournful, laconic atmosphere that penetrates right to one's core. From the testimony of a survivor: This was Majdanek.

The Place in The Woods.

What if I told you there was a place in the woods? A place where the serenity of nature was once drowned out by the deafening roar of fear. Would you believe me?
