RE: Commemorative tour around Plaszow Concentration Camp in Krakow

in Worldmappin2 years ago

You´re welcome @phortun, that´s true, it´s a very deep and complicated theme and you know, indians and black people unlike some, don´t have the power in Hollywood toshow and make massive the holocaust stories they suffered as others have had the opportunity to do. I don't want to get into controversy but just think about this, why are so many Hollywood movies about the Jewish Holocaust and none or and none or very few about the holocaust of the colonizers against the native peoples of the American continent, that of the Turks against the Armenians, that of the English, French and Portuguese against the Africans, or that of the United States against the whole world? I think that the the answer is obvious, so sad but true.

I can only agree. As sad as it is, the history of mankind has witnessed so many genocides (or genocide attempts) but their coverage in movies, books and culture in general varies greatly. Some of them have got a lot of attention while others have got just a little or none... Unfortunately :(

😔😥
In this world there are two realities, that of the visible ones (the powerful) and that of the invisible ones (those who are not) 😶
