New Media

I've been attempting to create a podcast with audacity. Ok, so I got the recording done, but I can't get the darn Lame thing to download and be located on the right space in my computer in order to transfer my Audacity recordings anywhere. Technology is wonderful. Technology is terrible! And, my head is pounding! I've signed up for Zshare, Podbean, and I don't know what else in hopes of finding a patch.

I will really really be glad when we address this in class.

Informative website concerning Latin American Jews and What the US Did with them

I haven't as yet followed the links on this site nor have a verified the information presented. However, there are some very interesting accusations put forth. Merits further research.

Crystal City Footage

This film is based on a DOJ propaganda piece. It shows actual footage of the Crystal City facility. However, most of the film is concerned with the Japanese Detainees. I am most interested in this research project with the German Detainees as I have read that some were traded to Germany for American citizens. My guiding research question is how many were of Jewish decent and traded? Furthermore, what happened to this particular group of people?

My favorite youtube video

If you are easily offended don't watch. If you're not and like a good laugh enjoy.

Dallas Internment Camps

For this project, I plan to research Dallas area Internment camps from World War II. I guess we'll see what I can dig up! I know that some interesting happenings did occur, and for quite some time I have planned to write a book about the trading of prisoners to Nazi Germany. The book would be similar to Schindler's List, Snow Falling On Cedars, etc. It will be interesting to see what new information I can come up with!
