WANT TO UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR "FRIENDS" THE LAST 3 YEARS?
Read THIS!
While this book discusses a specific Reserve Unit during WWII, the general argument Browning makes is that most people succumb to the pressures of a group setting and commit actions they would never do of their own volition. Christopher R. Browning’s account illustrates the every-day banality of evil and how all of us are fully cabable of both doing it AND justifying it in our minds and making it socially acceptable and even mandatory. This book explains step by step how a unit of average middle-aged Germans became the cold-blooded murderers of tens of thousands of Jews—now with a new afterword and additional photographs.
Ordinary Men is a powerful, chilling, and important work with themes and arguments that continue to resonate today.
ONE QUICK EXAMPLE of a recent non-profit micro-loan enabled by our paid Subscribers:
Our contribution towards a loan of $825 helps Suherni, an unbanked entrepreneur, to buy more fish for resale to expand her business and take care of her family. Suherni is 43 years old and married with two sons and two daughters. She runs a business selling a variety of fish to support her family. She has been running this business for more than ten years, and it has been a great contribution to the life of her family, not only to their daily needs but also to her children's educational needs.
Before we stepped in, Suherni applied but was shot down for a loan of 12,000,000 Indonesian rupiahs (IDR) from KBMI to get additional capital to buy more fish for resale to expand her business. Her income is not sufficient to make it happen, but she will be able to repay the loan she receives from us in timely manner, allowing us to lend out the money AGAIN to another deserving entrepreneur.
