Welcome back to Circa 1945: Breaking the Machine.

A podcast about genocide as infrastructure —

and the counter-infrastructure we must build to prevent it.

Today, I want to offer a very simple parable.

One that came to me while thinking about safety,

community, and the quiet ways we prepare for danger long before it arrives.

It’s about neighbors.

And fire.

And the three kinds of people you meet

when you start paying close attention.

This is The Fire-Minded Neighbor.
