Everyone debates the facts with subtle nuances , what aboutism & old fashioned gaslighting....I'm not debating if the South African immigrant did or didn't do a nazi salute (He totally did by the way), but the dismantling of the Department of Healths department of woman's health & reproductive rights in less than 24 hrs is fact. Can't wait for me Feb appointment to get my paperwork together to leave this country.

In the classroom, this book can serve as a powerful introduction to discussions about empathy, courage, and historical events like World War II and the Holocaust. It also supports teaching about diversity and the impact of individuals standing up for what‘s right.

This book was published in 2000, and is a historical fiction picture book. The story, set during World War II, follows a young French girl named Monique who discovers her mother is hiding a Jewish girl named Sevrine in their basement. The book explores themes of friendship, bravery, and the impact of war on children.

I read this book after I read Newshawks in Berlin. Hitlerland is, of course, Nazi Germany. This book shows us a picture of the rise of Adolph Hitler as seen through the eyes of various Americans living and working in Berlin. Some thought Hitler wasn‘t dangerous and his movement wouldn‘t last, especially after he was arrested and sent to prison. Quite an informative book if history is your interest. Five stars

A teacher, community leader, and respected doctor, 60 yo Janusz Korczas runs an orphanage. He and his team desperately try to save the children from disease, starvation and Nazi persecution in 1939 Poland. Tender, philosophical, authentic 💔

📕The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich

It‘s the History major in me.

Fascinating premise, but the execution was clunky - dialogue heavy instead of actually showing events, which made it seem longer than it was. Still fascinating considering it was published in 1937. In this envisioned future world domination is split between Nazi Germany and Imperialist Japan. Women are treated as cattle, good only for bearing children. Homosexuality among men is the norm and Hitler is worshipped as 7 foot tall, blond Aryan god.

This story is based on untold historical events inside the Lebensborn Society maternity homes that existed during WWII. They had a "Program" to ensure that the German race is preserved and raised by good German families. Three women find themselves in precarious situations while trying to protect themselves and their unborn baby.
