The app for independent voices

Teach the grandkids. Remind them. Show them their roots. What those people were and what they left for those after them. As boring as it is, I repeat the same thing again and again, how my grandfather disappeared from life, in June 1941. By the simple sway of the pointing finger, of the first neighbor, the door across theirs, who said: You, Jovan Šobot, you are also Serb. You should step in line too. Ustaš soldiers took him and others and his wife and two daughters never saw him again. I asked my grandmother, many times: couldn't you see, feel, do something? Oh my son, that came so quickly, in less than three months. Jovan would say - I am just accountant in German owned business in Bosnia, why would anybody do any harm to me and my family? I don't have any political opinions. Germans just came here, the same as in First war. And, somehow he was right. The Germans might leave him and family alone, but little motherfuker first neighbor had a different plan for him. Evil people must be labeled. Aggressive evil people must be removed.
