In January 1940, a mouth after Jack arrived at his uncle’s the Nazis demanded the services of three hundred adults every day to assist with work projects. With just nine hundred Jews in the village, this meant every adle-dodies adult male had to work. Since but there were some well-off people who didn’t want to do this labor and they were willing to pay for someone to take their place, Jack said. “I jumped at the chance. I had been helping out in my uncle’s factory wanting to do my share so I was learning what hard work was. The first day, the forced-labor crew’s job was to remove heavy snow from a road. Because they had no snow-removal equipment this had to be done with shovels.
Today, this morning I was reading a book, for the holocaust and I read “Viewing the Holocaust Today”. In this book I read that there is such a thing as “Soup Nazi.” They talk about how they showed it on the TV show Seinfeld. They also talked about how they picked some Jews to have them as housemaids. They also talk about how they felt, they thought that this was something they should be proud of, “This period of history must be retold to every generation…We have a long, long way to go before stories like this become ancient history.” They also talk about how people see the Holocaust now in modern day. They talk about it like any other thing. They can show things on TV and just tell the story of what happened.
I think its cool that people can now just talk about these things and be okay about it. I don’t think how people can get offended just by talking about it, I also don’t think that people should deny that it happened.
The Nazi party was led by Hitler. Three main types of camps that developed were, concentration camps, labor camps, and death camps. All the prisoners in the camps were imprisoned without trial and had no date for their release. The camps were very effective. There were very few people left in Germany who were willing to oppose the Nazis openly. Many historians agree that about six million Jews were killed. Most of them died in the camps. Death camps were set up from 1941 on to kill as many Jews as possible, as efficiently as possible. Concentration camps were the first Nazi camps. The Holocaust began in Germany at the start of World War 2. Germany’s armies swept across Poland, France, Holland, and they brought the destruction of Jewish communities. 1945, six million of Europe’s estimated nine million Jews were dead. 200,000 mentally and physically disabled people were killed. More and more people joined Hitler’s Nazi Party. Germany experienced economic troubles. The Treaty of Paris that ended the war left Germany bankrupt and isolated. Hitler and his Nazis soon gathered enough followers to take over control of Germany. Synagogues and Jewish graveyards were vandalized. In 1939, German armies attacked Poland. I thought that this book had tons of information. When Austria had beef, German troops moved in around 1938.
+Life & Death in Hitler’s Europe
+By Jane Shuter
+The pictures I’ve seen throughout the book are pictures of Jewish workers on break, Jewish families departing to the concentration camps, Warsaw ghettos, and post war reunions.
+I read a section on life in the ghettos and life was anything but a fairy tale. Ghettos were places, usually parts of cities or towns in occupied countries, where Nazis forced Jews to live. Forcing every Jew to live in the ghettos made the rest of the city Judenfrei (Jew Free.) The first ghetto was set up in Poland in October 1939. In time, more and more ghettos were set up in many other cities. The largest ghetto set up were in Warsaw and Lodz. At first, many Jews were able to adapt to the ghetto lifestyle but in time these living situations got worse. Living in the ghettos was being isolated from the rest of society.
