Edith Hahn Beer Quotes
Baron Louis de Rothschild, one of the wealthiest Jewish men in Vienna, tried to leave the city.

The SS took over the Rothschild Palace on Prinz Eugenstrasse and renamed it the Center for Jewish Emigration.

We have to create conditions where people feel safe to feel and to care. That goes against a lot of our programming about how to make something change in the world. Sometimes you can pressure people into changing, you can force them, but the powers-that-be have more force than we do. I don't think we're going to win in a contest of force.

Traditional activism, which is about overcoming the latest bad guy, isn't deep enough. It just brings us another version of the same.
