“The Holocaust took place because individuals, groups and nations made choices or decisions to act or not to act. The Nazis believed that exterminating the Jews was justified because the Jews were not only a “low” and “evil” race, but were affecting the lives of…
I. Introduction I chose to research the reason behind concentration camps and what Jews experienced while being put into the camps. Concentration camps have always been a learning topic during the time of the Holocaust. I find it intriguing to learn about the hard labor they were forced to go through and how they had to leave everything behind. The popular belief was that the Jews in these camps were guilty of crime which turned out to be false. Many were innocent and brought into these camps…

Cited in “Representations of the Holocaust” by Karein Goertz, Nach Der Shoa Geboren who was the daughter of a Holocaust survivor described the impact on her identity her…
Chaim Rumkowski Many observe and critique Chaim Rumkowski’s life when studying the Holocaust. His unusual story offers a unique vantage point, as this man was not a high ranking Nazi official or a fleeing fugitive, but instead the appointed Judenrat Chairman of the Lodz Ghetto. This position of power directly under Hans Biebow’s Nazi ghetto administration defined his role during World War Two and is the reason his life story has much to offer when it comes to the relationship between Nazis and…

In Comfort’s film, “180”, he uses multiple cases of rhetorical context, witnesses to his respondents, and was successful in proving his arguments. The Holocaust is known for being an era where millions of people, including Jewish, Christians, and many others were brutally murdered under the rule of one Polish…
Surviving the genocide: our minds remember “Auschwitz stands as a tragic reminder of the terrible potential, man has for violence and inhumanity”.

Even though there are infinite proofs of this mass extermination, there are still people who deny the existence of this systematic program of genocide.…
