And i am sorry, i dont remember all three our four of those subjects that she talked about. Thats fine. But im sure she will be able to repeat them now. Well, i mean, i think what i was talking about is you can read something and not internalize it. So you may have the information, but it doesnt mean you understand it, and then it doesnt mean you necessarily at this time believe it. And then it is the biggest jump, i think, is from knowledge and understanding and belief and translating that into some sort of productive action to deal with what youve read.

In the 1920s, the fears of immigrants which had been boiling during the time of the great migration to america started to come to a head and eventually leading to the johnson reed act of 1984 which effectively ended immigration by ins instituting quotas. This would of course become a very difficult thing, an obstacle ten years later when a lot of European Jews could have used another safe harbor during the rise of the nazis. The 1920s was a rise of antisemiti antisemitism, largely due to the immigration surge that had happened up until the 1920s.
