THE HOLOCAUST Anti-Semitism in Nazi German 1933-39
Holocaust Memorial Day, January 27th is where the
international community recognize the inhumanity,
which took place under the dictatorship of Adolf
Hitler. As we recall the horrific, mass murdering
event in Hitler·s reign over Germany, 1933-45. The
holocaust witnessed 6 million Jews being murdered
in addition to communists, gypsys, trade unionists,
and paraplegics. This reign of pure evil will always

Anti-Semitism is the term usedwhen people are prejudicedagainst Jews just because theyare Jewish. Anti-Semitism is amodern racial term that wasinvented in 1879 by a Germanjournalist called Wilhelm Marr.
In 1933 Germany became
a totalitarian state and in
1935 Hitler passed the
Nuremburg laws. These
laws stripped Jews of
their German citizenship
and Jewish people had to
wear the Star of David as
a form of identity. It isargued that Hitler had
already planned the
The Holocaust (Shoah) was aunique event in 20th century history.It evolved slowly between 1933 and1945. It began with discrimination;then the Jews were separated fromtheir communities and persecuted;and finally they were treated as lessthan human beings and murdered.

Nazi·s contained concentration camps in the
German territory across Europe. After the Reichstag
fire they were carried out over Germany and
originally they were planned to hold political
prisoners and opponents to the regime. The term
was borrowed from the Britishconcentration camps
of the Second Anglo-Boer War. This draws a
distinction between concentration camps and
extermination camps, which were established for
the industrial-scale murder of the predominantly
Jewishghetto and concentration camp populations.
Overall, 6 210 233 were killed during the holocaust from all
backgrounds, but mainly Jewish. It was not the largest masskilling of the twentieth century -- both Joseph Stalin and Mao
Zedong probably killed more people than Adolf Hitler. But "in
ferocity, hate, sadism and horror, the Nazi genocide of the Jews
of Europe is on its own. This is the story of Max and Lilly
Moskowitz from her son Jhan Moskowitz, here it is;
´Some survivors do not tell their kids anything. They just
Concentration Camps
don't. Some survivors tell their kids everything. When I was a
little boy, I crawled into my father's lap and asked, "What is tha
number on your arm?" He didn't flinch, he told me he was in
the concentration camps. He grew up outside of Lodz, Poland,
and spent four and a half years in several work camps as well
as Auschwitz. He did not explain in detail what he had been
through, but he told me more as I got older. I asked him if he
went to school, and he said that Jewish kids didn't get to go to
high school. He told me that when he was growing up in
Poland the week of Passover was terrible; his family never left
the house. If they did, the priest would come out of the church
with a big cross and kids would throw rocks and call them
"Christ-killers."
My mother's name is Lilly, and she grew up in Maramush,
which is between Hungary and Romania. She was in the camps
for almost two years. Because my parents were Holocaust
survivors, I grew up with a keen understanding of the fact that
was Jewish. There was never a time in my life when I did not
recognize the great price our people paid for our existence. When I got sick as a child I remember feeling a moral obligationto get better. Both my mother and father made me feel guilty if
got sick. I had to be strong and live to defeat the Nazis'
intentions. Knowing the pain and suffering my parents endure
meant that I could not complain about incidental problems.
When I came home one day and said, "There is nothing to eat,
let's go out," my father said to me sternly, "There is bread, there
is a meal!" How can you tell a man who was so malnourished
that eating a full meal would have killed him when he wasliberated, that there is not enough food?

The Holocaust Wednesday 16th February
Lessons we can learn from the Holocaust
Pellentesque:
I think it is important toremember what happened in
the Holocaust and to try toprevent it from happeningagain. We have learnt a veryharsh lesson on maninhumanity to man. TheHolocaust displayed theincredibly brutal nature ofFascism and how Germancitizens got caught up inpropaganda and supported
something evil. That we can beso incredibly cruel and harshand the people did this toother people and how can itbe? I thinkteaches us a lotabout discrimination and howwe must always be guardedthis never happens again. Ifwe can avoid hate andprejudice in our own lives,then that is the first step to
making the world a betterplace. This is where Historyand Education are crucial ineradicating discriminationtoday by highlighting theinhumanity of the past.

First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out ³ because I was not a
Jew.
Then they came for the communists
and I did not speak out ³ because I was not a
communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out ³ because I was not a
trade unionist.
Then they came for me and by then there was no one left to speak out for me.
