"Maus" - The Book they want to be banned - What you can do for yourself - Politicians hate this trick

Cover (c) Pantheon

Art Spiegelman's comic "Maus" is about the time of the Third Reich in Germany. The central character of the story is Spiegelman's father, Wladek (1906-1982), a Holocaust survivor. In numerous sessions, the father tells his son the story of a survivor, as the subtitle of the book is called; the comic thus addresses both the Holocaust and the painful memory of it. Spiegelman puts the story told by the father down on paper, not without going into the current situation of the narrating father, who has developed into a reclusive, stingy and stubborn old man and, despite his Holocaust experiences, discriminates against black people. The difficult relationship between son and father and the suicide of the mother are also taken up as topics.

The story is told as a fable. Through the animal metaphor (and the medium of comics), Spiegelman keeps his distance from the horror that is being told:

“I need to show the events and memory of the Holocaust without showing them. I want to show the masking of these events in their representation." (Spiegelmann, quoted from James E. Young)

In January 2022, it was announced that a school board in McMinn County, Tennessee, made a decision the previous year to ban the use of the comic in the classroom. The ten-member panel unanimously voted to ban the comic from classrooms after initially discussing partial censorship.

However, the book makes an important contribution to looking into this time and not forgetting it. With more and more schools talking about banning certain books, it's time to think about what to do about it. The simplest trick politicians hate: buy the book yourself. This is how this important cultural asset is preserved.

There are now two books, "Maus" and "Maus II", as well as the anthology "The Complete Maus". You can order them from AMAZON.com right here:

Akukho okungenakwenzeka. Ukuqaphela kuqukethe ukukhipha amandla kagesi kwamandla amaningi. "Quantum" kusho ukuvezwa kwe-transformative.
Ngokujula, siphilisa.
Uthole indlela yakho? Umjikelezo we-quantum ubiza wena nge-cascade ye-resonance. Ungakuzwa? Uma ungakaze uhlangane nalokhu kuvumelanisa isenzo sokudala, kungaba nzima ukuzivuselela.
Izingxoxo zethu nezinye izithunywa zevangeli ziye zaholela ekuvusweni kokuqwashisa okungenangqondo. Kuwo wonke umlando, abantu bebelokhu bexhumana ne-dreamcape nge-oscillations ye-wave psionic. Isintu asikwazi ukulahlekelwa lutho.
Funa, bheka ngaphakathi bese uvuka. Nakuba ungase ungaboni, uyinani le-quantum. Kungaba nzima ukwazi ukuthi ungaqala kuphi.
Kumele sizivuse futhi sivusa abanye.
Kumele sifunde indlela yokuhola izimpilo eziphezulu ezibhekene nobugovu. I-quantum matrix isondela endaweni yokubamba. Ake ucabange ukuthi kukhona okungahle kwenzeke.

Akukho nto engenokwenzeka. Ubunono buqulethwe ngumbane we-electromagnetic resonance of energy quantum. "I-Quantum" ithetha ukutyhila kweenguqulelo.
Ngokujulisa, siyaphilisa.
Ufumene indlela yakho? Umjikelezo we-quantum ubiza kuwe nge-casonade ye-resonance. Ngaba uyayiva? Ukuba awunakuze ulungelelanise lo msebenzi wokudala, kunokuba nzima ukuba uzilungise.
Ingxoxo yethu nabanye abahamba ngeendwendwe iholele ekuvuseleleni ukungazi. Kuyo yonke imbali, abantu baye baxubana ne dreaming nge-psionic oscillations. Uluntu alupheli nto.
Umcebisi, khangela ngaphakathi kwaye uvuse. Nangona ungaziqondi, uyingakanani. Kungaba nzima ukwazi apho ukuqala khona.
Simele sizivuse kwaye sivusa abanye.
Sifanele sifunde indlela yokukhokela ubomi obuninzi obuphezulu kwiimeko zokuzingca. Isibalo semitha sisondela kwinqanaba lokubamba. Khawucinge ngeso lengxaki yezinto ezinokuba yiyo.

Krag is die groei van skoonheid, en van ons

Niks is onmoontlik nie. Bewussyn bestaan ​​uit elektromagnetiese resonansie van kwantum energie. "Kwantum" beteken 'n onthulling van die transformerende.
Deur die verdieping genees ons.
Het jy jou pad gevind? Die kwantumsiklus bel jou via 'n resonansskaskade. Kan jy dit hoor? As jy nog nooit hierdie harmonisering van die skeppende daad ervaar het nie, kan dit moeilik wees om self te aktualiseer.
Ons gesprekke met ander pelgrims het gelei tot 'n ontwaking van die pseudokwantumbewussyn. Dwarsdeur die geskiedenis het mense met psioniese golf ossillasies met die Dreamscape gehandel. Die mens het niks om te verloor nie.
Soeker, kyk binne en ontwaak jouself. Alhoewel jy dit dalk nie besef nie, is jy kwantum. Dit kan moeilik wees om te weet waar om te begin.
Ons moet onsself wakker maak en ander wakker maak.
Ons moet leer hoe om hoëfrekwenslewe in die gesig van selfsugtigheid te lei. Die kwantummatriks nader 'n puntpunt. Stel jou voor 'n verdubbeling van wat kan wees.

Hakuna kisichowezekana. Ufahamu una resonance ya umeme ya nishati ya kiasi. "Quantum" inamaanisha kufunua mabadiliko.
Kwa kuimarisha, tunaponya.
Je! Umepata njia yako? Mzunguko wa quantum unakuita kupitia kinga ya resonance. Je, unaweza kusikia? Ikiwa hukujawahi kuzingatia hii ya tendo la uumbaji, inaweza kuwa vigumu kujitegemea.
Mazungumzo yetu na wahamiaji wengine yamesababisha kuamka kwa ufahamu wa pseudo-quantum. Katika historia, wanadamu wamekuwa wakiingiliana na dreamage kupitia oscillations ya wimbi la psionic. Binadamu hawana chochote cha kupoteza.
Mtafuta, angalia ndani na uwafufue. Ingawa huwezi kutambua, wewe ni quantum. Inaweza kuwa vigumu kujua mahali pa kuanza.
Tunapaswa kuamka wenyewe na kuamsha wengine.
Lazima tujifunze jinsi ya kuongoza maisha ya kiwango cha juu katika uso wa ubinafsi. Matrix ya quantum inakaribia hatua ya kupiga. Fikiria unnobling ya nini inaweza kuwa.

Power is the growth of beauty, and of us

Nothing is impossible. Consciousness consists of electromagnetic resonance of quantum energy. “Quantum” means an unveiling of the transformative.
By deepening, we heal.
Have you found your path? The quantum cycle is calling to you via a resonance cascade. Can you hear it? If you have never experienced this harmonizing of the creative act, it can be difficult to self-actualize.
Our conversations with other pilgrims have led to an awakening of pseudo-quantum consciousness. Throughout history, humans have been interacting with the dreamscape via psionic wave oscillations. Humankind has nothing to lose.
Seeker, look within and awaken yourself. Although you may not realize it, you are quantum. It can be difficult to know where to begin.
We must awaken ourselves and awaken others.
We must learn how to lead high-frequency lives in the face of selfishness. The quantum matrix is approaching a tipping point. Imagine an ennobling of what could be.
