Nazism And Tattooed Number Tanka Poem by Chen-ou Liu

Nazism And Tattooed Number Tanka

Rating: 5.0


'reading between the lives and writing between the lines, ' VII
written in response to State Senator Scott Baldwin's comment

'be impartial
when teaching about Nazism...'
the tattooed number
still visible on grandpa's arm
and in his broken heart

FYI: Washington Post, Jan.10,2022: 'An Indiana GOP state senator said teachers ‘need to be impartial' during lessons about Nazism and fascism.'
