Making 1945 Happen

Some would argue we are again in 1938,
That Ukraine is like Czechoslovakia,
That they have help terror at bay,
That they have extended 1938,
Yet 1939 is knocking, urgent,
the wider war may be at hand…
 
But we need a radical revision,
An urgent resetting of the table,
A D-Day invasion of thought,
To lead to a different outcome,
In making 1945 happen, resolve,
From Victory, a just peace will rise…

quote of Timothy Snyder, Levin Professor of History and Global Affairs
