@clintsmithiii.bsky.social...and to Germany where I spent time with Holocaust survivors and people who built the memorials to that violent past. Each of the people and places I visited reminded me that how we tell the story of the past shapes our understanding of the world today.
@clintsmithiii.bsky.social...to Seoul, South Korea where I sat alongside former “comfort women,” women who were forced into sex slavery by the Japanese military; to Nagasaki, Japan where I learned from atomic bomb survivors; to Bariloche,Argentina where I followed the trail of Nazis who fled to South America after the war...
@clintsmithiii.bsky.socialOver the course of the past five years, I traveled to a dozen countries across four continents. I visited the Navajo Nation where I spent time with surviving Navajo Code Talkers; to California where I spoke with people who were held in Japanese American incarceration camps...

@clintsmithiii.bsky.socialA good World Cup was the best thing that could have ever happened to Odegaard. Man has been on fire since.
@clintsmithiii.bsky.socialIf Saka, Havertz, and Odegaard can stay healthy this year it’s basically like new signings
