Today we learned about the Holocaust and other "interesting things."
The Holocaust:
This is a genocide that killed 6 million Jews during World War ll. The total number of the victims of the Holocaust was around 11-17 million people. Hitler had a problem with homosexuals and dark skinned people and many other races and types of people. Racism was wide-spread and Hitler didn't like the United States for a few reasons, one because we were a basturd race. The Aryan race is blonde hair blue eyed people and they came from Germany. Hitler had "breeding" farms and he wanted to promote the Aryan race. There were baby steps to the Holocaust. Nazis temporarily suspend everybody's civil liberties in 1933. Jews could no longer be doctors, teachers, and they couldn't attend colleges and high schools,etc. Jews could not have any jobs or get an education. Nuremburg Laws took away citizenship from the Jews, property rights were taken away. The mixed race was not the greatest because if you had 1-2 grandparents that were Jewish you were considered Jewish. Jews could only marry Jews and no sexual relations between non Jewish Germans and Jews. Germans could not buy from Jewish businesses and Kristallnacht was the night of the broken glass. This is where the Nazis went around and demolished the Jewish sinagogues and businesses. Only 91 people died during Kristallnacht so it was not about killing the Jews, it was more about running the Jews out of business. 1939 is when the war actually starts and he started the murders of mentally and physically disabled in Germany and Austria.
