Description

For episode 11, I am joined by Dr. Jazmine Contreras (@jazzydomenique on Twitter), and we talk about the memory of World War II and the Holocaust in the collective Dutch memory. We'll give a little background about the initial German invasion, and jump right into Dutch resistance, the Nazi occupation, Westerbork, and how the Holocaust is discussed in contemporary times in Holland. Hope you enjoy the episode! -A quick note: We had some weird feedback during the recording, and I did my best to make sure I got as much out of it as I could. Thanks for bearing with me while I refine my producer abilities!
