Prof. Charles Sarvan<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cOn June 17, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Democrat of New York, posted an Instagram live video discussing the detention camps along the southern US border as \u201cconcentration camps\u201d in which she used the\u00a0phrase \u201cNever Again.\u201d\u00a0This drew sharp criticism the following day from Representative Liz Cheney, Republican of Wyoming, and others for allegedly misappropriating a slogan associated with the Holocaust. After several days of heated media and political debate, the\u00a0United States Holocaust Memorial Museum released a statement on June 24<\/a> condemning the use of Holocaust analogies.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I was sent a message indicating that certain \u201cscholars\u201d have reacted to the Museum\u2019s stance<\/a>.\u00a0I have no pretension of being a \u201cscholar\u201d and merely share my \u2013 somewhat random – layman\u2019s thoughts. (End of Preface).<\/p>\n

It must be admitted (and deplored) that certain words are used carelessly and inappropriately. Exaggeration damages rather than bolsters a case, and to make totally inappropriate comparisons – \u201cholocaust\u201d, \u201cNazism\u201d, \u201cHitler\u201d, \u201cPol Pot\u201d, \u201cGulag\u201d, \u201cconcentration camp\u201d, \u201cslavery\u201d etc. \u2013 displays either carelessness or a most unfortunate\u00a0 <\/span>ignorance of the real nature of these historical persona and phenomena. By \u201cslavery\u201d here I mean the African slave trade which, I have argued elsewhere, is the worst blot ever on human history, taking into consideration its duration (over centuries, numbers (running into many millions) and nature (appallingly cruel). Collective denial and willed amnesia mean that (to the best of my knowledge) there are no monuments or day of public mourning in the USA for the crime on which that country was built. On the other hand, power and influence make sure that the Nazi holocaust is constantly kept in view and mind: see my article, \u2018Remember the Holocaust. Remember. Remember!\u2019 in the Sunday Island<\/i>, Colombo. 27 March 2011.<\/p>\n

We human beings have two contrary impulses: one the one hand, to belong and, on the other, to be different. Regarding the former, Durkheim in his classic study of Suicide (1897) writes of \u201cthe need that drives us to harmonise ourselves\u201d with society. Shylock in Shakespeare\u2019s \u2018The Merchant of Venice\u2019 makes a powerful case for the recognition and respect of our common, shared, humanity:\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cHath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions? Fed with the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer\u2026? If you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?\u201d\u00a0<\/span>(Act 3, Scene 1).<\/p>\n

The other impulse leads to the attempt to be different, to be distinguished from others. In certain individuals, this is manifested in the importance they give to the clothes they wear and to fashion in general. As with individuals, so it is with a people: to be different, special, even unique. For example, some Sinhalese Buddhists believe (in merely verbal protestation if not seriously) that they are unique because the Lord Buddha chose them out of all the peoples of Planet Earth to be the guardians of his preaching in its purest form.\u00a0<\/span>(To what degree this \u201cpurity\u201d has found expression in private and public or political life, is irrelevant here.) Before the advent of Nazism, Jews in Germany were integrated, seeing themselves as different but going to form one totality. Many Jews fought for Germany during the World War One. Ironically, Hugo Gutnam, Hitler\u2019s direct superior in 1918 and the one who recommended that Hitler be awarded the Iron Cross, was a Jew. Hitler wore the Iron Cross for the rest of his life while Gutnam, together with other Jews, lost his citizenship; fled Germany and wandered a while as a refugee in Belgium and France before finding a home in the USA. There are similarities with the Igbo experience.<\/p>\n

I arrived in Nigeria to teach at a university shortly after the Biafran War, also known as the Nigerian Civil War, ended. The Biafrans, though a minority, had been in the forefront of the struggle against British rule, and had believed in a united Nigeria. While the North was Moslem, the Biafrans were Christian. What\u2019s more, they had taken to Western education, largely introduced by Christian missionaries. Enterprising and industrious, they moved out of traditional Igbo territory and could be found all over Nigeria, including the Moslem dominated north. A \u201criot\u201d is usually understood to be a spontaneous, even accidental, outburst of violence, while a \u201cpogrom\u201d means a planned and prepared onslaught on a helpless and hapless minority: the attacks on pockets of Igbo which preceded the outbreak of war in 1967 were a pogrom, and not to be \u201cpassed off\u201d as riots. These attacks forced the Igbo to see themselves as not belonging to the nation, and to think that safety depended on separation.\u00a0<\/span>(Chinua Achebe, world-famous author of Things Fall Apart<\/i>, was an Igbo and published his recollections in There was A Country<\/i>.\u00a0<\/span>I suspect Achebe got this title from a poem by William Wordsworth which begins \u201cThere was a boy, you knew him well\u2026\u201d. It ends with the poet standing in silent grief by the boy\u2019s grave. The dream of Biafra too, though passionately loved and sacrificed for, died very young.)<\/p>\n

Shifting in time and place, there are similarities with Sri Lanka. I cite from my review of H.A.J. Hulugalle <\/i>(1899-1981<\/i>): Selected Journalism<\/i>, <\/i>published in the Sunday Island<\/i>, 24 January 2010, under the title \u2018<\/i>Hulugalle: Ceylon to Sri Lanka:\u00a0 <\/span>the failure of parliamentary.\u00a0<\/span>Hulugalle writes that when he became a journalist in 1918, Sri Ponnambalam Ramanathan, a Tamil, was \u201cthe leading politician in the Island.\u201d Ramanathan fought untiringly for \u201cthe Sinhalese Buddhists who were badly treated by the Government over the religious [Buddhist-Muslim] riots of 1915.\u201d Standing up for justice, he took their appeal to England, despite the danger posed by German submarines (Hulugalle, p. 135). Those Sinhalese Buddhists leaders who were \u201cflung into jail had no more sincere and eloquent pleader of their cause than Sir Ponnambalam Ramanathan\u201d (Hulugalle, p. 151). \u201cOn his successful return, jubilant crowds placed him in a carriage, detached the horses, and dragged the carriage themselves. He was not seen as a Tamil who had helped free Sinhalese but as a Ceylonese helping fellow Ceylonese. It will also be startling for many to find Hulugalle saying that (Tamil) Sir Ponnambalam Arunachalam is \u201cthe father of the nationalist movement\u201d (p. 149).<\/p>\n

Returning to my Preface and the insistence reported there that certain words be used only in connection with the Jewish experience, I remind readers of Ludwik Zamenhof (1859-1917) who invented the artificial language, Esperanto, as a step towards the dispelling of linguistic misunderstanding, and thereby hoping for the creation of greater harmony within humankind. By and large, the attempt failed but today (whether we like it or not) we have a natural, a living, Esperanto in the English language, commonly shared and freely used. Whatever its origins, no one people can now claim exclusive ownership of the English language. That being the present reality, for a group of Jews to attempt to place prohibitions where the use of the English language is concerned seems, at the best, strange. I conclude by quoting from an article of mine already cited: \u2018Remember the Holocaust. Remember. Remember!\u2019, the Sunday Island<\/i>, Colombo. 27 March 2011.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut it is pointless to enter into a competition in suffering. There are few \u2013 if any \u2013 countries which can look back at their history without some surprise, embarrassment and shame. Walter Benjamin who committed suicide rather than fall into the hands of the Nazis described, in his \u2018The Concept of History\u2019, a painting by Klee called Angelus Novus. \u201cAn<\/p>\n

angel is depicted there who looks as though he were about to distance himself from something which he is staring at […]. The Angel of History must look just so. His face is turned towards the past. Where we see the appearance of a chain of events, he sees one single catastrophe, which unceasingly piles rubble on top of rubble and hurls it before his feet. He would like to pause for a moment [but] a storm drives him irresistibly into the future, to which his back is turned, while the rubble-heap before him grows sky-high.\u201d An answer to \u201cHow should the Shoah be remembered?\u201d would be \u201cIn a wide, historical, context\u201d. Not only the Shoah but various other expulsions, occupations, pogroms and massacres should\u00a0be analysed in an effort to understand. Each such historical event is specific and different<\/p>\n

but, as several writers have shown, there are commonalities. For example: state orchestration, incitement and facilitation of assault and robbery, expulsion and mass murder; the triggering of ancient and irrational fear and suspicion; the mistaking of myth for history, and taking the former to be objective truth (myth outlives fact because a people choose what beliefs they\u2019ll subscribe to); the unscientific belief in \u201crace\u201d and that one\u2019s own \u201crace\u201d is superior \u2013 even enjoying divine injunction, authorisation and license.<\/p>\n

To throw up one\u2019s hands in disgust and horror at the Shoah may point to our piety but, other than that, is not useful. The holocaust has \u2018generated\u2019 thousands and thousands of articles and books by brilliant, scholarly, minds. It has been examined from many aspects, and in great detail; held under the most searching of microscopes. But a minute study of the specific, if it is to be useful, must be related finally to the general. We must remember the holocaust in order to learn from it for the betterment of all (emphasised) humanity. In this respect, I think that to particularise and emphasise that it was done by Germans to the Jews is not helpful, for it enables and encourages all non-Germans to distance and exculpate themselves. I would suggest that the approach should be from a point of identification: We, <\/i>human beings, did these things to some of our fellow human beings. As John Donne wrote, each and every one of us is involved (and implicated) in humankind. Finally, the Shoah is significant not because the victims were Jews but because it was perpetrated by a part of our humanity on another. One studies and remembers the past in order to avoid similar tragic calamity in the present \u2013 and to build a more rational and sane, decent and just, future\u201d (End of quote).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
