« I´m going to do this course for a range of reasons. Firstly, for personal understanding of antisemitism and what Jewish people have had to go through in the course of history; secondly, to broaden my knowledge of the topic and become better-informed ; thirdly, I am deeply concerned about the rise of antisemitism in Europe in general and really anxious about relativization of Holocaust in my country. I want to be able to fight this form of hatred more efficiently.
