“Are ICE Detention Centers Concentration Camps?” Zank教授接受了《今日波士顿》的采访
BU Today interviewed religion Professor Michael Zank about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s recent comments on concentration camps and migrant detention facilities.
“The analogy” that Representative Ocasio-Cortez made between detention facilities and concentration camps, Professor Zank tells BU Today, “is correct as many scholars have confirmed.” Even more importantly, instead of shying away from or condemning evocations of the Holocaust, we ought to use its memory to interrogate the present and future: “the phrase never again,” Professor Zank says, “不能仅仅意味着大屠杀再也不会发生。 The past does not repeat itself, but it can be investigated and learned from.”
