"Most countries that slide into some form of dictatorship do so slowly and from within. It’s a series of steps, and usually the citizens of such countries are not fully aware of it as it's happening."
Thank you for your excellent piece on “Judgment at Nüremberg.“ Spencer Tracy portrayed my grandfather, Judge Justin Woodward Harding. I learned firsthand as a young child the horrors of the holocaust, horrors that few of my Jewish classmates ever knew. I grew up in a non-denominational home, became a Jew By Choice at 33, a cantor at 35 and an ordained rabbi in 2012. I do feel that the period we are experiencing in the U.S. has frightening similarities to the nazi era, but my prayers are that America will ultimately reject the authoritarianism to which we’re being subjected. Thank you again!
Very good post! Thanks Michael!
Thanks for reading, David!
