weren’t even really members of group. Harris had become a target for harassment by other students for his weird looks and odd behavior. Both Harris and Klebold studied German and became engulfed with Adolf Hitler and the Nazi behavior. They wore swastikas and sometimes gave the "Heil, Hitler" sign.

Jean Améry, a survivor of the Holocaust, paints a very complicated and contradicting picture concerning the “necessity and impossibility of being a Jew.” The impossibility comes from Améry’s faith, or lack thereof.

Baby! My love is stronger than a water buffalo!” from the bike with Hardblood painted on its tank, the color of a bruise. Nurses in emergency walk the man behind the curtain. His chin streaked with grease, his back tattooed with a blood dripping swastika. His ear held by eight stitches, opens in the doctor's light. Damn coon, if I ever see him again I'll pull his head off and shit in his neck! Sweat falls, a glass strand of hair across the cheek of a nurse. Her fingers a bundle of corn stalks…

German Rubble Films of the Late 1940s German rubble films in the late 1940s do not appear to directly engage the larger picture of the atrocities that took place during WWII. Two 1940s rubble films were viewed and analyzed to determine how they dealt with Germany’s responsibilities for excessive human suffering in WWII. Murderers Among Us (MAU), 1946, directed by Wolfgang Staudte and Seven Journeys (SJ), 1947, directed by Helmut Käutner were both viewed, compared, and contrasted. Post-WWII…
