4: Understanding the Holocaust
About this episode
By Deeown Shaverdian
Today I discuss major questions: Why the Jews? Was it jealousy that lead to the rise of these antisemitic social norms in Europe? Who were the perpetrators? Who were the victims? Who were the bystanders, if any? My argument would be that there is no such thing as bystanders in times of moral crisis.
