During World War II, Adolf Hitler was persecuting minorities in Europe. His main target were the Jews. In order to accomplish this, Hitler used numerous systems of persecution, including propaganda, the relocation of people to ghettos, and the creation of laws to take away peoples’ rights. However, one of the most effective systems? that was used during the Holocaust was the use of technology to effectively exterminate the minorities that were, in his opinion, the problem.…
The United States never made the rescue of the Jews a priority, during World War II.…
Did you now that even some Germans were killed in the Holocaust? In my opinion, prejudice and Anti-Semitism made the Holocaust possible. Prejudice has been around for a long time and eventually majored in Germany. Also, the genocide of Jews first started as taking rights away but then eventually led to genocide. In conclusion, the Holocaust was possible from the fast-growing prejudice against Jews in Germany.…

The quotation tells me that the plight of Jews under the Nazis was such a struggle and they were helpless. This scene where lieutenant Kotler does something to Pavel at the dinner table when he spilled the bottle of wine on his lap, which is not mentioned but the reader can assume it was something extremely brutal and unpleasant for Pavel, is just one example of the cruelty that Jewish people had to live though for more than ten years during the Holocaust. In the book it Bruno’s father says, “We are correcting history here.” Jewish had to live through so much torment that the Nazis inflicted on them because in the opinion of most Germans, they were “Correcting history” like Bruno’s father says in the book, by getting rid of weak and dangerous…
The Museum of Tolerance is a place that not only is a home to a memoriam of the Holocaust but it also tries to break the barriers of racism, prejudices, and discrimination and tries to teach and incorporate in people that even though everyone is different, everyone shares a universal attribute, that each person around the world no matter their race, gender, country of origin, or choice of religion still bleeds red, feels pain and are human beings. As soon as people realize this fact and accept that no one set of people are better than the other, places like The Museum of Tolerance will not be needed but till then we need to remember what hatred, prejudices, discrimination and the inability to accept people for who they are has and can do to this world.…
“In order for a house to burn down, three things are required. The timber must be dry and combustible, there needs to be a spark that ignites it, and external conditions have to be favorable—not too damp, perhaps some wind” (Bergen 1). What conditions could have led to such atrocities? The Holocaust was an event of global proportions; it involved people from all areas of life and was the result of complex social, political, and economic conditions that stemmed from the legacies of antisemitism throughout Europe, European imperialism, and World War I. These precursors helped ignite the spark that resulted in one of the most destructive events in human history.…
Adolf Hitler left a ruinous impression on the Jewish history. With over 40,000 construction camps and the slaughter of over 6 million Jews, he traumatized the culture. Eliezer Wiesel was one of those victims. To be beaten nearly to death, dehumanized, and to lose himself was tragic. During the Holocaust, all Jews were dehumanized and in Night by Elie Wiesel reveals this.…
The Holocaust was one of the world’s greatest tragedies that was made possible by hatred, widespread anti-Semitism, and outright discrimination. It was the state-sponsored murder of six million Jews by Hitler and the Nazi party. In 1933, the Nazis came to power in Germany and they believed Jews were an inferior race, a threat to the superior Aryan community. Hitler also targeted other groups such as homosexuals, Gypsies, Poles, and the disabled because of their racial inferiority.…
The Holocaust has been put down as one of the most awful and horrifying events in world history. It is impossible for someone to understand and see what the victims of the Holocaust had to go through. Millions of people died because someone couldn't see past the outer shell of a person and judged them because of who they were. That person was Adolf Hitler. He brain washed tons of people into agreeing in his opinion. He wanted the “perfect” race and would kill anyone in the way of his wish, like Jews, Gypsies, Poles, and people with physical or mental disabilities. He put innocent people through the absolute worst conditions and had no mercy.…
“It was once said that not remembering the Holocaust means to side with the executioners against its victims; not to remember means to kill the victims a second time; not to remember means to become an accomplice of the enemy. On the other hand, to remember means to feel compassion for the victims of all persecutions. By solemnly commemorating the tragedy of the Holocaust, we will keep history in mind, never forget the past, cherish all lives, and create…

During the Holocaust the main targets for the Nazi’s (us) were the Jews(them), Eastern Europeans, Gypsies, Jehovah Witness. They were classified as the ’weaker’ race.…
he gendercidal dimension of the holocaust against the Jews was evident during particular phases of the campaign of extermination. It nonetheless has its harbinger in the mass detentions of males during the earlier (1933-41) period of Nazi rule. As a campaign of full-blown mass execution, the gendercide against Jewish males marked an important, if temporary, "onset phase" of the holocaust in the occupied eastern territories (including, after August 1941, the Balkans). Gendercidal strategies against women were evident at later stages, both in mass executions and gassings, women-only death camps, and the forced marches that killed tens of thousands in the closing stages of the war. Again, it must be stressed that in both their male and female manifestations, the Jewish gendercides were subsidiary features and strategies of a campaign of "root-and-branch" extermination, in which gender was far from a dominant consideration overall.…
Every day homosexuals face challenges that heterosexuals do not. These challenges include people giving them looks when they are walking down the street while holding hands with a person of the same sex. They also face challenges in being accepted as a true family, this is because in many states same sex marriage is deemed illegal. Over the decades people have become more adjusted to homosexuals in society. In the movie “If Walls Could Talk II Segment I” there is a lesbian couple who are very secretive of their relationship because of the fear of being misjudged. In the time period that the movie took place people who were gay were look down upon in society. During the movie Abby has a stroke and Edith is not allowed to see her in the hospital because the hospital staff did not know that they were in fact “family”. After Abby had passed Edith was not allowed to claim anything because they were not legally married. This paper will discuss the different ways that the movie “If Walls Could Talk II Segment I” proved to be effective and ineffective.…
