Description
Describes three executions that took place in Echirolles, France in order to shed light on a memorial bias that has anchored Holocaust history in France, as well as how that history is understood. The Holocaust in France is viewed through the distorting lens of 'deportation'. Yet deportation was not a policy but the means of implementing the assassination of Jews by directing them to their place of death.
