Miss Gates talks about how Hitler is evil for killing all the Jews, and how being prejudiced against someone for their religion is wrong, yet she is racist against black people. So, she is a hypocrite for saying it is wrong to judge someone by their religion, but judging black people for their…
During World War Two (1933-1945), Adolf Hitler came to power and began to take over the world with his views. The events that took place under his control were horrendous; the worst being the Holocaust, killing an estimated 11 million people. As time goes on, some people are developing the belief that the Holocaust didn’t actually happen, it was a myth made up by Hitler’s opposition, used as a tactic to suffice his fall down from power. This small group of people are generally known as simply Holocaust Deniers but such believers name themselves ‘revisionism’. Throughout this essay I will suggest and discuss arguments to prove and disprove that the evidence is sufficient to deter these deniers.…
Despite the common belief that eugenics were practiced solely but Hitler and his followers during the Holocaust, the original exploration of eugenics began in the United States by people such as Sir Francis Galton. Many organizations in American funded eugenic research, then the ideas were exchanged into Hitler’s possession. After Hitler set about achieving his goal of a “Master Race”, prisoners in camps such as Auschwitz encountered the harsh techniques used to fulfill Hitler’s desires. Although eugenics were most prominently used during the Holocaust, eugenics actually originated in America.…

The ideal Aryan had pale skin, blond hair and blue eyes.” (“How Did”) Which is what is mostly made up of hitler's country of germany. “Non-Aryans came to be seen as impure and even evil. Hitler believed that Aryan superiority was being threatened particularly by the Jews.…
As soon as Adolf Hitler came into power in 1933, he set off on a mission to rid or 'cleanse' Germany of 'weakness' and 'filth'. His ultimate goal was to separate the “inferior” races and humans from the “superior” humans to create a perfect ‘Aryan’ race (blond hair blue eyed) with the use of Francis Galton’s: ‘eugenics’. Vastly influenced by Darwin’s theories (especially survival of the fittest), he believed in selective breeding of a superior gene pool. From this, the separated “inferior” races were labeled “degenerate”.…
Tolerance undoubtedly involves “the question of right or wrong.” In fact, one can debate that tolerance is not always the answer to “the question of right or wrong.” For example, those who tolerate racism do not necessarily believe racism is right. However, if those who tolerate racism do not proclaim that racism is wrong, then they will be drowned out by the voices of those who say that racism is right. How will one know that racism is wrong if they never hear racism is wrong?…
Hitler used the preexisting prejudices as a strategy to get the German people to believe him and his solution of eliminating Jews, gypsies, Poles, Slavs, handicapped, homosexuals, communists, and socialists to ensure the rise of a strong German nation. Hitler’s “master race” included people who were considered strong, with the ideal person being tall, blonde, and blue eyes. He also used the preexisting antisemitism that already existed in Germany to get people to follow him. Some laws for the Canonical (Church) Laws from 306-1431 correspond with Nazi laws that were put in place that would exclude Jews from public places. He racializes Jews, meaning Jews are a race and it runs in someone’s blood, so many who did not previously think they were Jews were all…
Amid World War II, Adolf Hitler and his Nazi party individuals attempted to execute each Jew in Europe. This happened all over Europe yet started in Germany. Hitler and the Nazis figured out how to murder 11 million - 14 million individuals. Among those individuals were 6 million Jews, this included 1.5 million kids also. In Germany, while the warriors were out battling wars, individuals in Germany encountered an alternate sort of danger.…
Nearing the end of the war there was an influx of killing frenzies, manic death throes, and hundreds of thousands dead, all occurring between 1944-1945. In the beginning of 1944 many Germans still expected to win the war, however, by the end of the year that opinion had changed. Hitler was under assault from the air, from the Red Army in the east, and, after D-day in June, from the Allies in the west. German defeat was looming, yet killing went on in many varied settings; from the extreme death tolls of the Allies in both eastern and western fronts, a plot to kill Hitler, to the death throes of the Third Reich. Mass murder continued even into shrinking German territories well into 1945.…
Many German intellects began to argue that some individuals had a greater right to life than others, mainly people who were notably more valuable to society than other individuals . This inequality was mainly due to race, but some did argue that there was some that was inferior in a race as well . For instance, Karl Vogt, zoologist and politician, argued that a mentally handicapped child was closer in value to an ape than to his own parents . Consequently, Spencer wanted to gain knowledge through a scientific approach, but many individuals mistook his theory and used it as a justification for discrimination like Adolf Hitler who ultimately discriminated against all minorities . This need for evolution by all these individuals is not the…
In 1933, a mass genocide began in Germany that would last 12 years when Hitler attempted to eliminate all Jews for the reason that, in his eyes, people with blonde hair and blue eyes would be the superior race. The desire to have one “perfect” race could arise again if science learns how to modify the genetic makeup of babies before they are born. Genetically modifying babies could also lead to a divide in social classes between those that have hand selected traits, and those that were born naturally. There would also be a potential for the class divide to expand into a social divide among parents and children alike, where the “designer” children may look down upon their peers and adults would conclude that they are superior to those children and their parents. The children…
During the last two centuries scientists have discovered the secrets of DNA, they created the internet, sequenced the human genome, and they are trying to find ways to mimic certain biological processes. Eventually through the continued advancement of biotechnology scientists are going to find ways to create body parts, bodily fluids, and develop other ways to treat several diseases. The historical and political aspects of a country easily influence science and medicine, yet medicine and science can also influence the historical and political aspects of a country. Medicine and science is what influenced the development of ‘racial hygiene’, which then led to the science of eugenics. This ideology of racial hygiene and eugenics is what led the…
Representing Race Nazism and the influence of American eugenicism Germany was influenced by the fast paced American eugenics movement, like other countries in Europe such as France, Belgium, Sweden, and England, in where eugenicist groups strived to introduce eugenic beliefs into national life. Hitler terrorized an entire continent and exterminated million in his quest for a so-called Master Race. Yet, the blue-eyed and blonde physical traits, well sought after by eugenicists didn’t originate with Hitler.…
