So sad to leave Jersey earlier today. But what a happy time we had with friends old and new! We’ll be back soon ❤️❤️

What a warm welcome we had from the Jersey Jewish congregation last night for Shabbat dinner! Thank you for your hospitality and delicious food. We were glad to talk about the Alderney Review and the research process. Thank you Martha Bernstein and Stephen Regal ❤️

Time this morning for a visit to ⁦JerseyArts.com⁩ to see the exhibition of internee art. Every picture is an old friend to me, studied for my book ‘A Materiality of Internment’ coming out with ⁦Routledge Books⁩ in the autumn ❤️

Very pleased to chair a panel session today in Jersey with Lord (Eric) Pickles on ‘the Future of Memory of Forced and Slave labour in the Channel Islands’. Very interesting discussion & plans emerging! One of the first events of the U.K. presidency of IHRA.

The slave worker ceremony at Westmount in St Helier today, expertly MC-ed as ever by Gary Font, was a moving occasion. Such an important part of Liberation Day. Parish of St Helier Government of Jersey Lord (Eric) Pickles

The ⁦Lord (Eric) Pickles⁩ Alderney Expert Review is finished today. We answered all questions posed & - frankly - we cracked it. We exceeded even our own expectations. It shows what is possible when the experts get together to share & interrogate data. Damn proud of the team!

A preview into the Alderney Expert Review which I am coordinating, which is currently consuming my waking hours (and dreams). It is almost complete and I am damn proud of the team's work!

Working at the computer late again again again, editing the Alderney Review report with one hand and cradling Pipkin with the other. My eyeballs are dried out husks!

During WW2, Lety in present-day Czechia was a concentration camp in which Roma and Sinti were detained. The Nazis and their Czech gendarme collaborators made Lety a Hell on Earth. Most were transferred to the killing camps in Nazi-occupied Poland, and few survived. Conditions

Lovely photo of Anna Míšková with Lord (Eric) Pickles at the opening of the new exhibition at Lety Roma camp in Czechia. I hope we will see more photos very soon! I feel very honoured to have visited the archaeological excavations there.
