I keep saying I’m not going to another
holocaust movie. But then I do.
The latest one set in Augsburg,
1958, when twenty-something Germans
thought Auschwitz was nothing more
than a POW camp and their teachers,
their fathers & their uncles had been,
at worst, good Germans, who didn’t ask
“Wanna see some dirty pictures?”
then showed you photos of
Dr. Mengele’s experiments on twins.
