Points clés
When a Nation Must Face Its Monsters
A white Jewish woman who grew up in the segregated American South now lives in Berlin, the former capital of Nazi Germany. This unlikely journey positions her at the intersection of two nations wrestling with unspeakable crimes-Germany's Holocaust and America's slavery. What can a country that systematically murdered six million Jews teach a nation built on centuries of enslaved labor? The answer isn't simple, but it's urgent. As Confederate monuments fall and debates over reparations intensify, we're forced to ask: Can a nation truly transform itself by confronting its darkest chapters? Or are some wounds too deep to heal?
