Jewish women

"the Jewish women he had seen on the news films, trying to shelter the small boy from the bullets" (Page 160).

This passage proves that the people in Oceana still hold onto old memories. Most people do not pay attention to the fact that these memories contradict the history provided by the Party. Winston knows that this women in his dreams is Jewish although he has no idea what that means, because religion has been eliminate and replaced with the Party.
