Herero genocide

[Mike Weaver]

Illness has its advantages - unable to sleep for coughing last night, I 
caught most of a programme on BB4

The Second Reich and Genocide methodically described the annihilation and 
enslavement/slaughter of the Hereros between 1904 and 1909
The methods used were clear forerunners of the Holocaust and IMO more 
evidence that Pynchon does not ignore the Holocaust in GR but includes 
sufficient material to take the interested enquirer further than would have 
likely been the case had the events been starkly included in the narrative.
Catch the programme when repeated.

cheers
