The Holocaust

Hey guys! It has been a minute since I last blogged about something. I admit I've been having an eventful couple of weeks so there has been no time to post anything.

Anyhow I was given another assignment today. I was told to write about the Holocaust. Interesting topic right? I know a couple of things about the Holocaust that you all might know as well. It consisted of the death of 1 million Jews which was caused by Hitler and his belief of a perfect race. The majority of the Jews died in concentration camps. After the war, the world was shocked to find out about the horrors of the concentration camps from the survivors who lives through it.

I learned this information from books like Hana's Suitcase and movies like The Boy in the Striped Pajamas. I also went to a couple Holocaust museums that each gave intriguing information.

Like most people that's only the tip of the iceberg to what I know about this gruesome time in history. There some things I would like to know about the Holocaust. How were the survivors able to survive? What did they do once the war was over? How did it feel to be hated by the world?

There are some things about the Holocaust that we will never understand. We can't change what happened in the past. All we can do is to prevent this type of genocide to never happen again in the near future.
