A friend asked me whether I could help her with something. She knew I work with testimonies of Holocaust survivors in education and thought I could help her. We met over a coffee in a hipster place. There, she told me that her son suddenly started talking about Hitler. He talked about him all the time. Hitler and Nazis became a permanent conversation topic at their home, and she did not know what to do.
“But he is too young for what I do,” I heard myself saying.

What are the pillars of modern democracy and how can democracy be defended in days of crisis?
