Years ago, I went to Poland to see where the Powazeks came from. Dad and I took a tour of one of the camps where our family was killed. The tour guide asked us if we were Polish or Jewish. "Both," I said. "You can't be both," he said flatly. This was in the early 2000s.
This is how the Poles could kill us. Help the nazis send us to camps. Take our homes. We weren't part of "us."
Today: Republican Ron Johnson reminds us that Jews in America are also not "us."
Johnson saying that doesn’t surprise me, but that someone working as a guide in a death camp OF ALL PLACES would be that casually bigoted? That really does.
