Before Memmo my notes were scattered across PDFs. Now a workspace pulls everything into one place — I see exactly what's still left to study.
In 2020, in the midst of COVID-19 lockdowns, Denise Handlarski learned of testimony given by her grandfather, a Holocaust survivor who she never knew. In his testimony, Jakub Handlarski accuses a Polish police officer of murdering his brother and sister prior to the Siedlce Ghetto liquidation. The author had never heard this story. She had no idea her grandfather had ever given this testimony. In fact, she knew very little about her grandparents’ experience during the Holocaust.
Despite Jakub’s testimony, the police officer was acquitted. Why? And why had no one in the author’s family ever mentioned this story? What does it mean when family history intersects with one of the greatest travesties of human history? The author sets off on a search through family stories, archives, and Holocaust history to try to uncover the truth of what happened to Jakub and his family.
Mining Memory is as much about the search—the process of “doing” history and the people who do it, and what we can learn at the intersection of trauma, memory, and testimony—as it is about what the author found. This book aims to challenge the way historians write history and the way teachers teach it. Though scholarly, this is a deeply personal work that would have never happened without the chance discovery that led to so many questions. Handlarski confronts issues of objectivity in history, and her volume brings forth new interpretations of Holocaust history and testimony through the lens of the descendants of a survivor. Jakub’s story may have been the prompt, but ultimately this book turns the lens on historians themselves as the subjects of historical research, not just history’s arbiters.

Memmo's summaries are gold before exams. I don't have to re-read 800 pages two weeks before — just the important parts.
The AI chat has saved me the night before an exam more than once. I just keep asking until I get it — no waiting on a study group to reply.
The quizzes hit exactly what I need to know. Memmo tracks what I get stuck on — so I only practice what's worth it.
Flashcards with spaced repetition are magic. Memmo knows when I'm about to forget something and brings it back.
The AI podcasts are my favorite. I listen on my way to school and get a recap without sitting at a computer.
