|
Much ink has been spilled across white pages in reference to the Holocaust that took place against concentration camp inmates during World War II. Many say that interference at an earlier time by America could have changed the outcome. ...
Peter Novick, in his book The Holocaust in American Life, seems to believe that as of the last part of the twentieth century the Holocaust has been mentioned more as an American memory as well as a Jewish one. ... (Buchanan, 1946)
It is interesting to note that Novick attributes more of the Jewish awareness of the Holocaust to the latter part of the twentieth century, where a rallying cry of never again was taken up by Holocaust survivors and was supported by lobbyists and other groups whose best interests were better served by aligning themselves with many well placed citizens who just happened to be of Jewish decent. In large part the movement of the Holocaust from the Jewish general America arena resulted from private and spontaneous decision of Jews who happened to occupy strategic positions in the mass media. ...
