idea made up her decision of hate toward the opponent. For example, when she met a Jewish survivor of the Holocaust and genocide conference, she felt that it was not necessary to dislike the adversary under harsh or cruel circumstances. Peavey states in, “I told her how angry I was at the Nazis. (I guess I was trying to prove to her that I was one of the good guys)” (Peavey 353) She told Helen Waterford (Jewish survivor) briefly that she hates the Nazis though Helen response puzzles Peavey on…

Banning Books It was April 8, 1933, the main office for Press and Propaganda of the German Student Union proclaimed a nationwide "Action against the Un-German Spirit". This was widely known as the German Book Burning, performed by the Nazis to “cleanse literary purge by fire”. These books were burned because they had religious and political thoughts that didn’t match what Germany wanted their citizens to perceive. At first glance, this would look like a tyrannical action forced upon citizens,…

past events and humankind’s accomplishments and times of ignominy. Without history, significant events would not be remembered.

The Nazi Party and their leader, Adolf Hitler, were responsible for this massacre, which caused around eleven million deaths.

Although the Nuremberg Trials gave sentences to a handful of different Nazi Party war criminals, many more are still out there. As stated by the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, “Only a small percentage of these criminals have been brought to justice.” (The Search For Perpetrators 1) In May of 1960, Adolf Eichmann, who played a key role in the Holocaust, was…

appears that everyone is against Hans’ beliefs even his son tells him to join the Nazi Party. I think Hans has a distaste for the Nazi’s because of their hatred and unfair treatment of Jews. He states his denial of the party to his family frequently: "Mistakes? I've made many mistakes in my life, but not joining the Nazi Party isn't one of them" (Zusak 104). This explicitly presents how Hans trusts that the Nazi party beliefs are wrong. I also know that Hans shows favor towards Jews because in…

A Million Falling Blossoms Between five and six million Jews - out of a Jewish population of nine million living in Europe - were killed during the Holocaust. There were 505,000 jewish people out of a total population of 67 million Germans, or somewhat less than 0.75 percent in 1933. That is approximately 66,495,000 bystanders. The White Rose movement took a stand against Nazism and begs the question “what if”? “We will not be silent… we are your bad conscience. The white rose will not leave…

In terms of my view of the world, I feel as though compassion is very paramount. The sympathetic pity and concern for the sufferings or misfortunes of others is so paramount that a large number of the world is surrounded by it. Not only do I believe compassion is important, but compassion means an extraordinary deal to me. In my heart, compassion means so many different things to me. There are so many different varieties of words, descriptions and thoughts that fulfil the meaning of compassion.…

Within the play Julius Caesar, as an audience, we are asked to question every character’s virtue. As the play progresses these lines between good and bad men become increasingly blurred, making it harder for the audience to distinguish the wrong from the right. Ultimately it would appear that every character is filled with both evil and good and it seems as though throughout this play Shakespeare is trying to highlight the unrealism attached to such simplistic ideas. Within Medieval England…
