Neo-Poland: An Original Poem
Today on Jewcy: Grappling with the controversial new law
April 30, 2018
I wrote this poem after hearing of the Polish government’s legislation limiting discussion of the Shoah. Most, if not all, societies try to suppress the disturbing events of their past. It is the role of historians, artists, and activists to remind them of their buried misdeeds.
