World History Blog: The Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at the University of Minnesota

On the World History blog of Miland Brown, the link to The Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at the University of Minnesota has been given. The site provides with an exhibition of original material and bibliography of that period.

I have read about it but never knew that what strong feelings it evokes in some European countries. In some countries like Canada there seems to be some laws in force barring you to undertake some discussion about the nature and actual happening of that period or to talk about happenings in the Nazi Camp. I also learned about a contention against those scholars who are termed as revisionists. There had taken place in the early part of this year when sixty years had completed and it was being remembered by the survivors of that unsavory act of human cruelty, a discussion at education forum. It was started by another American Scholar Shanet Clark. It was a response to one of a member who had tried to divert the discussion on JFK debate to Anti-Jew discussions. That discussion may also prove a substantiative source to the contents of the site identified by Brown. Another substantiative debate is being started at their subforum at Nazi Germany.
