Here's one that should be mandatory reading in school. It has been, in different places over the years, but should most definitely be mandatory across the world.

I agree, Nocturnalux ! Looks like it is on the "banned book list" nowadays. 🙄 unbelievable and unfortunate.

That's...unreal. Surreal? Surely not normal, at all.

Pretty frightening!

I read in Denying the Holocaust: The Growing Assault on Truth and Memory that the Diary is one of the primary targets of Holocaust deniers. More than tomes on the subject, because fewer people will read these, the Diary has been attacked left and right, as a forgery. This included, at one point, claiming that one of the pens used did not exist at the time the Diary was written. Turns out, it did, but I bet you can still find this argument floating around in some circles.

Oh wow, I never knew that. I'd definitely like to dig more into all of that!
