Adam Kotsko @adamkotsko - Aug 21 In discussions of reducing car dependency, one often hears, "What about people in remote rural areas?" And my gut instinct is -- people shouldn't be living there in the first place. The solution is to give them generous grants to relocate among other humans. 4,916 8,029 Adam Kotsko @adamkotsko Aug 21 "But what if they like living in remote rural areas?" Sorry, you can't always get what you want. A lot of people would like to live in dense, transit-rich settings but can't -- either because they can't afford it or it simply doesn't exist where they are. 513 1,059 285 1,043 302 Adam Kotsko @adamkotsko Aug 21 And if this sounds harsh -- don't worry, it will never happen, because our governmental institutions are INSANELY biased in favor of rural areas. They'll be fine. I'm just a guy over here having an opinion. 368 182 366 Adam Kotsko @adamkotsko - Aug 21 "Isn't it mean to imply that rural people's lifestyle is bad and wrong?" As someone who lives in Chicago, all I can say to that is: cry me a river. 278 ↑ 290 ***

Pajamafication

Gwen C. Katz @gwenckatz There's a phenomenon I actually see extremely commonly when literature is used to teach history to middle school and high school students. Let's call it "pajamafication." 12:57 PM 1/29/22 Twitter Web App 17.9K Retweets 3,194 Quote Tweets 54K Likes 27 Gwen C. Katz @gwenckatz. 22h Replying to @gwenckatz So a school district nixed Maus from their curriculum, to be replaced by something more "age-appropriate." IIRC they didn't cite a specific replacement title, but it will probably be something like John Boyne's "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas." 8,606 28 Gwen C. Katz @gwenckatz. 22h The Boy in the Striped Pajamas is tailor- made for classroom use. It's taught at countless schools and it's squeaky-clean of any of the parent-objectionable material you might find in Maus, Night, or any of the other first-person accounts of the Holocaust. 14 5 Gwen C. Katz @gwenckatz. 22h It's also a terrible way to teach the Holocaust. I'm not going to exhaustively enumerate the book's flaws--others have done so--but I'll summarize the points that are common to this phenomenon in various contexts. 6 JEW! Gwen C. Katz @gwenckatz. 22h First, obviously, the context shift. Maus, Night, et al are narrated by actual Jews who were in concentration camps. The Boy in the Striped Pajamas is narrated by a German boy. The Jewish perspective is completely eliminated. 20 1867 THEY RAN SCREAMING HOME. HELP! MOMMY! A JEW!! Gwen C. Katz @gwenckatz. 22h Second, the emphasis on historical innocence. Bruno isn't antisemitic. He has no idea that anything bad is happening. He happily befriends a Jewish boy with absolutely no prejudice. 2 QUICK, THE MOTHERS CAME OUTSIDE TO SEE WHAT WAS! RECETGES 9 DON'T BE AFRAID, LITTLE ONES. I'M NOT A JEW. I WON'T HURT YOU. 15 Gwen C. Katz @gwenckatz 22h Thus we're reassured that you too, gentle reader, are innocent. You too would have have a childlike lack of prejudice and you too would be such a sweet summer child that you would have no idea the place next door is a death camp. 1 507 AND WE CAME HERE TO THE CONCENTRATION CAMP AUSCHWITZ, AND WE KNEW THAT FROM HERE WE WILL NOT COME OUT ANYMORE. 4 Gwen C. Katz @gwenckatz 22h In Maus, by contrast, the children are not innocent. They are perpetrators of injustice just like adults. THIS GUY WHO WE PULLED BIG PILES, OLDER OFTEN THE 10 ONES Gwen C. Katz @gwenckatz 22h Maus also smashes the claim that people just didn't know what was going on in the camps. 4 Gwen Now, AND EVERYBODY CROWDED INSIDE THE DOOR CLOSED HERMETIC, AND WORKED 564 5 Gwen One how 454 BODIES THE 385 Gwen C. Katz @gwenckatz 22h Third, nonspecificity. The Boy in the Striped Pajamas turns a specific historical atrocity into a parable about all forms of bigotry and injustice. I'm sure Boyne thinks he's being very profound. But the actual effect is to blunt and erase the atrocity. 12.7K I believe and out. be complete of big survived. 369 Gwen C. Katz @gwenckatz 22h There's the too-cute-by-half way it avoids terminology: "Off-With," "the Fury." Harsh language becomes "He said a nasty word." AWAY THE F Notice how "it's a fable" ties in with the goal of eliminating anything parents might object to. 8 CLUBS, 9 Gwen C. Katz @gwenckatz 22h And that's our fourth point. Bad things can happen, but only abstractly. Someone's dad disappears. He's just...gone. How? Who knows. People stand around looking hungry and unhappy and saying "It's not very nice in here." THE MIDDLE BROTHER, 708 Gwen C. Katz @gwenckatz 21h The ending is sad, but it's sad like a Lifetime movie. It's sanitized, it's quick, there are no details, it's meant to poke that your heart that loves crying. bit of 6 264 8,962 ↑ Gwen C.

The Nazis didn't just do "bad things, generally," they did THESE things. And leaving out the details is simply historical erasure. HE SAW TO RUN BACK. 8 Gwen C. Katz @gwenckatz. 21h fifth: Fiction.
