To illustrate, the Holocaust began in 1933 when Adolf Hitler came to power in Germany. However, it came to an end when the Nazis were defeated by the Allied powers in 1945. This was a very tough and critical time especially for Jewish people. Approximately two-thirds of the Jews living in Europe were killed by the Nazis and about 11 million people were killed in all, six million of these were Jews. These poor people were put in all kinds of different camps, including concentration, extermination, labor, prisoner-of-war, and transit camps.…
Pain The Holocaust was a very depressing, and a very destructive time for the world. It damaged everyone who went through it or experienced it mentally or physically. The Holocaust stripped people of their human rights. They were dehumanized, every human right they had was taken away.…

The Holocaust is a subject that is overlooked, misunderstood, and disregarded. Students do get taught about it in school, but it generally becomes a subject that people avoid discussing because they don’t want to offend someone. It soon became a subject that was too daunting and too terrifying to be thought of. People can’t even try to fathom the kind of evil it must take to degrade humans the way the Nazis did during the war, that they just stopped thinking about it all together. Some people even convinced themselves that the Holocaust never happened.…
The objective of teaching any type of subject is for the student to think critically and for them to be curious. The Holocaust is prime candidate for students to critically think through complex life issues since kids will be need to know about these issues later in life. “The Holocaust provides one of the most effective subjects for examining basic moral issues” ("Why Teach about the Holocaust?"). It is right to teach the kids about the Holocaust now because when they grow up they will be used to matters like killing, racism, and Anti Semitism. As a result teaching the Holocaust to younger people is better now than later.…
Fences of prejudices is what the world has become where the ignorance of the people have them separated due to differences in ethnicities. One of the fences that have left a great inconsolable memory around the world the fence used during the holocaust for the reason of. One being Jew and one being German, they were both separated and forbidden from interacting with the general population because of their ethnicity all this was enforced under the wing of the Nazi regime. This separation was portrayed by the long fence around the Auschwitz concentration camp that confined the Jews inside the fence. Throughout the holocaust times, societies were predominantly brain washed into trusting the commands of Adolf Hitler and his Nazi parties.…
Throughout history, there have been many wars and much oppression of certain groups worldwide. One of the world’s most famous and cruelest oppressions was the Holocaust. Near the end of World War II, America dropped the first two atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki which brought the end of the war. Some historians may argue that the Holocaust was more about liberating the people in concentration camps and giving those people freedom from Hitler and his dictatorship. Other may argue that not much is known about other groups beside the Jews that were affected by the Holocaust.…
To teach a class about the holocaust and only show them "Life is beautiful" , would be like wanting to teach a class about World War Two and then show them a Disney movie. Not that it is a bad movie, it just does a very bad job of portraying the horrific events that occurred during the holocaust. This movie never once shows a prisoner being beaten or killed, we are left to assume that Guido was shot and left for dead. If you were just starting to learn about the holocaust and watched this movie you would think that it would have been easy for children like Guidos son Giosue to stay in the camps with their parents. If you could only show one film, this would not be a very wise choice because: it makes it seem like the Jews lived easy lives, it gives you the idea prisoners could easily defy the guards and act out, and it makes you think prisoners could easily hide children in the camps.…
This was a horrific period in history. The holocaust was truly a crime against humanity. It killed millions of people and affected even more lives. Before 1933, World War 1 devastated Europe. Germany had built up resentment after the war’s peace settlement and the Treaty of Versailles.…
How would you feel if you were treated unfairly because of the color of your skin, or your religion? People all over the world face this unfair intolerance. The definition of intolerance is unable or unwilling to endure. This means that not all people can handle the fact that others are different, so it causes them to show hostility to a certain group or race of people. In our world, there has been many cases of people showing intolerance in the past, and present to a group of people.…
Many people deny the holocaust and what happened to the Jews between January 30, 1933 to May 8, 1945. All the evidence is there supporting the Holocaust the gas chambers are still there with gas residue inches thick the barracks are still standing. So you tell me how you can deny that one of the greatest historical events to have ever happened didn't happen or was greatly exaggerated. Not only did it happen but the SS were the ones recording the torture, murder, and cremation of thousands of innocent Jews and gypsies. Its not like the Jews are asking for sympathy they aren't asking for anything they want to forget it all…
The Holocaust was the effect of Nazi Germany’s plan to rid their country of anything or anyone that did not fit into the idea of an Aryan race. A lot of events and tribulations lead up to Holocaust’s occurrence. People paid attention to the violent acts against the Jewish people such as Kristallnacht and their placement into concentration camps, but what they do not seem to notice were the people who stood by as these things happened. These people who were there and did not to help or stop the continuance of eliminating the Jews were bystanders. The bystanders during the Holocaust not only watched as horrible things happened to the Jews, some even decided to take part.…
Why should future generations know about the holocaust? The Holocaust was an unquestionable powerful event that all started with Hitler and the Nazis in Germany. Not only German Jews but all Jews were killed just because Hitler thought they didn’t match the characteristics of a natural born German Jew. This was such a tragic event that it should be widely known by all generations. People and children of younger generations should all be aware that this happened in order to stop future events such as the Holocaust to happen again.…
Generally discussions about the Holocaust begin and end with a narrative surrounding the Jewish population. This is not a whole and complete account of all of the groups and people that were affected by the event. Many times this leads to an incomplete reflections on the atrocities during the Second World War. There were many segments of the population that were also targeted in an attempt to enact the moral, political, and ethnic policies of Hitler and the Nazi party.…
