Ali was now suing the district for illegally firing him over his race and religion. Ali, who was teaching students to question the Holocaust and who was also pushing 9/11 conspiracy theories.

I had sent an email earlier in the year to the district about my study of how textbooks portray the Holocaust and officials there remembered my note.

Ali began in November 2017 when I got a phone call from a lawyer who was representing the Woodbridge Township School District.

I had to work to keep my emotions in check and focus on the business at hand. Many often feel like they carry the trauma that parents and grandparents experienced. My work shows how deeply members of the second and third generations feel the impact of the Holocaust in their lives. I have also spent the past four years interviewing children and other grandchildren of Holocaust survivors. My grandparents were Holocaust survivors. Now here I was some two decades later, being called upon to serve as a witness against a schoolteacher trying to get his job back after being fired for doing essentially the same thing. Author David Irving claimed that Deborah Lipstadt, professor of modern Jewish history and Holocaust studies at Emory University in Atlanta, had alleged in a 1994 book that he denied the Holocaust.
