    Thank you so much for posting [this] these classes. I am to old and haven't the cash to be able to go back to college but critical thinking knows no such limitations. I am so thankful for this offering I cannot tell you.

    Thank you sooo much for these uploads. Due to my financial situation I am unable to continue my studies in order to get my degree. Though that is hard for me to come to terms with, these online courses are a great opportunity to at least continue my personal development. They are such a great help and inspiration.

    Charlotte Delbo is also a survivor who wrote in a very different style as compared to others.

      Would like to be able to access syllabus, calendar (assignments), etc, but can't find course on the CCLE site he mentions. It only goes back to 2012.

    I'm wrong ;) I think it may be etymologically related to the term 'jewish question' as used in earlier times, which changed it's meaning/perception throughout time? (wikipedia: jewish question)

    34:51- 'Endlösung der Judenfrage' does not translate as 'Final solution to the Jewish question'. 'Frage' in German can both mean 'question' and 'issue; problem'. In my language, Dutch, which is in many ways very similar, the equivalents for the two translations would respectively be 'vraag' (lit: question) and 'vraagstuk' (lit: question piece).
    It's quite clear that within this context the second option is the right translation.

    Gosh this is false, "nicht" is translated in to "not". "Vernichtung is a verb which translates in to "extermination"
