Japanese comedy duo visits Auschwitz on TV
Asahi TV sent Sandwichman, a comedy duo, to Poland to tour Auschwitz. Airs October 17.
Using comedians as a vehicle to teach about the Holocaust is either brilliantly clever or deeply tone-deaf depending on execution. Japanese media's approach to heavy historical subjects through entertainment figures is distinctly different from Western reverence-only framing. Worth watching how they land this.
