Time to really talk about the Holocaust
Time to really talk about the Holocaust
The silence of the Holocaust is the silence of death and we cannot bear to hear it. So we covered over it with a new people, a new state, a new culture, a new language and with tales of heroism.
(April 8, 2021 / JNS) I dream of a time when Holocaust Remembrance Day will see us think and talk about the Holocaust. Because for decades, we have been talking about the heroism associated with it, which is something I can no longer take.
There is no greater injustice that can be inflicted on the Holocaust than impressing onto it heroism as its more successful twin sister, the one shining bright in the darkest of skies.

Enzo Chaim Sereni (1905-1944) was an Italian Zionist, co-founder of Kibbutz Givat Brenner, a celebrated intellectual, and a Jewish Brigade officer best known for his heroism in parachuting into Nazi-occupied Italy in World War II, where he was captured and executed in Dachau.
Sereniâs wealthy assimilated Italian family was both culturally eminent and Jewishly involved; for example, his father was physician to the Italian king Victor Emanuel III and his uncle was head of the organization of Jewish communities in Italy. While still a teen, Sereni became one of Italyâs first Zionists after attending and being inspired by the Thirteenth Zionist Congress in Carlsbad (1923).
