Stolpersteines
Resource addedPainter: “Yeah, I was thinking about a conversation I had last
night with historians, and these were young historians who had
gotten their PhDs at North Carolina, Chapel Hill. And one
woman said that her activism was to take walking tours, and
Catherine mentioned the Stolpersteine. Those don’t exist, and
they should exist in the U.S. There should be a stone that makes
you stumble and remember what is no longer there”(39-40).
Note
Stolpersteine are the stumbling stones placed around Germany and other countries
where Nazis committed atrocities. The act of missing ones’ footing, hence
stumbling, reminds people of what awful things occurred at these particular
places.
