On December 5th, for over five hours, lawmakers grilled the presidents of elite universities in a congressional hearing about antisemitism on college campuses. In one of the testiest exchanges a Republican congresswoman, Elise Stefanik, asked whether “calling for the genocide of Jews” violates university rules. It is “context-dependent”, replied Liz Magill, the president of the University of Pennsylvania. Clips of the exchange went viral on X, formerly Twitter. Yad Vashem, a Holocaust museum and research centre, issued a condemnation and stressed the importance of “raising awareness about the history of antisemitism and the Holocaust”.

...a bipartisan group of senators, led by Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.), introduced a bill to reauthorize the Never Again Education Act, providing federal funding for Holocaust education.

“Failing to educate students about the gravity and scope of the Holocaust is a disservice to the memory of its victims and to our duty to prevent such atrocities in the future,” Rosen said in a statement. “At a time of rising antisemitism, reauthorizing the bipartisan Never Again Education Act will help ensure that educators have the resources needed to teach students about the Holocaust and help counter antisemitic bigotry and hate.”

In the basement of the world’s oldest archive of the Holocaust, located in a townhouse on Russell Square in London, the latest artefact to join the Wiener Holocaust Library’s collection leans against a wall. It is a metal sign that had been attached to the building’s front railings until early November when it was brought downstairs after staff arriving at work found it daubed with the word “Gaza” in red paint.

It marks a dispiriting start to next week’s 90th anniversary of the library’s establishment, something that is being commemorated in London with an exhibition of some of the archive’s most significant objects, and in Amsterdam with the installation of new Stolpersteine (stumbling stones), concrete cubes with metal plates, engraved with the names of Kurt Zielenziger and Bernhard Krieg, who died in the Bergen Belsen concentration camp.

Okay, i get it, too many words for a phone screen to handle...but the thread wasn't posted specifically for you, so why such angst about it -
Is there an unwritten rule that a post should contain a word limit?
