Dear Jill,

As the child of immmigrants, I want to thank you for this piece. You’re the best.

Also, I can’t help but wonder if you’re somehow related to another Filipovic because you have the same fighting spirit. This is Stjepan Filipovic, in the somewhat famous photo of the partisan fighter resisting fascism right up to the end. I’ve long admired his spirit. And I admire yours, too. Maybe it runs in your family. It’s a powerful image.

“Death to fascism, freedoms to the people”.
