Julie Lindahl: 我在巴西长大，母亲是波兰裔德国人。从小我就感受到一种莫名的羞耻感，这与我家族的纳粹历史有关。我的祖母是一位坚定的纳粹分子，直到去世都否认大屠杀。我成年后开始研究家族历史，在德国和波兰的档案馆发现了祖父参与纳粹暴行的证据，包括对波兰劳工的殴打和可能的谋杀。这段经历让我痛苦不堪，也让我对家族历史有了更深的理解。我与祖父受害者及其后代的会面，让我体会到了他们所遭受的痛苦，也让我找到了自我和解的途径。我的羞耻感转化成了行动的能量和责任感，促使我写下这本书，并向世人讲述这段历史。 Eric Weinstein: Julie的故事让我对家族历史、世代创伤以及犹太人和德国之间的复杂关系有了更深刻的思考。我钦佩Julie直面家族历史的勇气，也反思了自己对这段历史的复杂情感。我们讨论了如何处理过去、如何面对不同文化之间的冲突，以及如何重建人与人之间的联系。Julie的故事提醒我们，面对历史的真相，需要勇气、同情心和深刻的自我反思。我们需要加强人与人之间的联系，而不是简单地减少两极分化。
