I don't see them as the 'Other'. They're my kin. As Baldwin put it re the Black experience, I view those who create a negative 'Other' as revealing more of themselves than of the 'Other'. That's how I view so much of the past century of European history.

I'm not convinced with the European project and I don't see it going anywhere good unless they take seriously their Jewish heritage because to this day I don't believe most Europeans really understand what *they* lost with the Holocaust.
