Bergen-Belsen concentration camp

Concentration Camp Prisoner Uniforms Ignorance of the Holocaust can be very expensive. Witness what happened to Zara in August, 2014. Zara is a Spanish based clothes retailer and one of the largest in the world. It created a fire storm last August when it opted to retail a children’s shirt which it stated was inspired the American West (picture 1). While its resemblance to the prisoner uniforms worn by concentration camp inmates is obvious, Zara defended itself by noting the word “sheriff” was…

inspiration is from Anne Frank, in Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl. This girl has documented her experiences from the moment her religious group was being slaughtered by Nazis and went into hiding to when she was captured and sent to a concentration camp. Although she was eventually captured, Anne tried to make the best of it and had a positive attitude, even in the most impossible situations. The impact and thoughts are revealed in words by many people. In Anne Frank: The Diary of an…

horrible experienced when he was sent to the concentration camps. The speaker mentioned that he and his family used to live in Czechoslavakia. However, when the oppression began, him and his family were taken to Auschwitz concentration camp. On the way to this camp, he was forced to take a train with lots of people. He didn’t describe how inhumane the circumstances were in the train, because he was feeling very sentimental. Once he arrived to the concentration camp, his mother and little sister…

Usually, when we talk about World War II, we talk about the situation of the Jews, so I learned a lot by doing this research. For example, I learned that the most “Aryan” girls were sent to special camps where they bred like animals with “Aryan” boys, that the young Germans enjoyed the power they had on their parents because they could report them to the Gestapo, etc. During this project, I also learned how to use some functions of Premiere Elements…

The mind is innately selective in deciding what information is important and relevant enough to be remembered, and what is not worth citing. For instance, although people tend to forget the majority of their dreams once awakening, they usually can recall either a joyful, good dream or a terrifying nightmare. Also, a person has the ability to forcefully control what to remember from the past. For instance, if someone goes through such trauma in their childhood, that person may be inclined to try…

Inside the camp are sorrow and distress, outside, lays… something. The Concentration camp took me, my mother, and my older brother, Marvin into its terrible boundaries. Day after day, not enough food, at least 10 more lifeless. I long to depart but instead, it grips tightly onto me saying, “Withdraw and a severe chastisement, remain and undergo day after day, in the camp.” If I leave and fail to escape, it will be the demise of me. I can’t bear to think about Marvin and mother, the…

seen between Bruno and Shmuel, two boys with totally different lives. Bruno is a nine-year-old explorer who was just moved to Auschwitz with his family because his father is the head commandant, whereas Shmuel is a boy living without a family in the camp as a prisoner, all alone. The boys are only separated by a fence. On Bruno’s side, there is food, a maid and servants, friendliness, and a loving family. On Shmuel's side, there is little food and no love. Although, despite the differences…

On January 30, 1933 the Holocaust began, Jews were taken into concentration camps not only to work, but to be puppets where doctors performed numerous experiments. They carried out a series of experiments in the camps from becoming infertile, testing war-injuries, and testing medicines. Most experiments were performed without anesthesia, bringing people to be wishing death because the pain was unbearable. Doctors gained a lot of knowledge from these experiments but they were done in a inhumane…

Life in camps. Imagine people dying in camps. Not camps that you are thinking of, horrible camps where people suffer, in many ways. From not eating and working non stop. All kinds of people. Where they work really hard until death or automatically go into gas chamber and killed. Concentration camps are horrible places that held lots of innocent people and were killed or worked until death. So as you can tell concentration camps were for the suffering and for death. Nazis built camps: The…

As children we were taught the good and the bad. We were taught to be good with others, to say please, and thank you, but more than anything to be honest. One of the biggest most unacceptable matter was to lie. We could not lie, no matter how big or how small it was, it is still considered to be bad, but what if one lie could turn to be something good. In the book “Night” by Elie Wiesel, a true told story, Elie a young teenager trying to survive the Holocaust tells how he lied to a…
