Deborah Lipstadt’s Holocaust Memorial Lecture

Memorial to Jewish victims of the Holocaust, BudapestMemorial to Jewish victims of the Holocaust, Budapest

Around this time of year, I always get an upsurge of anti-Semitic and Holocaust-denying comments, most of which are thankfully caught by my spam filter. They usually attach to this post and this post. This year’s batch were particularly virulent, and I happily deleted them, but it reminded me of the importance of Holocaust Memorial Day, which was this weekend. I couldn’t make any of the Oxford commemorations, so was hugely glad when an email dropped into my councillor account inviting me to a talk by Professor Deborah Lipstadt tomorrow. She was the woman whose book on Holocaust denial landed her in court on charges of libelling David Irving. She won, of course, proving him the liar that he is.

If anyone’s around in Oxford tomorrow night, feel free to join me: the invitation is open to all. Deborah Lipstadt will be talking about her encounter with David Irving, Tues 30 January at 8pm at the David Slager Centre, 61 George Street, hosted by the OU Chabad Society.

    Er, well it sounds like a good event, and I’m sorry I haven’t managed to make it to anything this year, but careful with the Chabad.

    Bollocks. That’s a bit of a dilemma, then. Would really like to hear Lipstadt’s talk, but not keen on spending time with people who think the relationships I have are morally equivalent to incest.

    In fairness, they don’t think that, because you’re not a Jew. They just think they would be if you were. Or, at least, elements within them think that. Contract-based morality, there…

    These modern day dilemmas, honestly!

    Normally don’t post work related stuff on “political” blogs but hope you won’t mind this.

    There are two films on You Tube relating to this year’s HMD which combine to make one longer film.

    One of the problems of being a councillor is that things turn up, so the dilemma was solved for me by not being able to make it at all. Oh well.
