Unit 2 Schindler’s List Essay
By Jayden
Oskar Schindler was a man who was considered a good man by many. He gave jobs to the hated Jews and the cripples even though these things were strongly looked down upon and eventually became something that was just far fetched in anyone’s mind but his own. In the time when he lived Jewish women were looked upon as non-human and something to be ashamed of but instead of hating the Jewish women he kissed one of them. He was looked to as a very good person by many and a very strange person by others as he treated the Jews like humans. When the Jews started to be tortured and forced to work for the government and treated horribly Oskar took them in and saved them. He had to do something.
During the war the Jews were killed without hesitation by the Nazi’s. If people, like Oskar Schindler, had done nothing the Jewish population would have been much smaller. Ideologically, whoever wrote this source assumes not only that Oskar Schindler is a good man, but also that there is a such thing as a good person. The Bible says that all men are evil sinners at heart in saying, “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”. The source is written by a left wing person it would seem because they are assuming that some people are good (good from birth and then you control if you are evil or not) while right wing people believe people are born evil. The strange thing is that the source focuses on individual people to do something about a problem and not people as a whole. This source is most likely written by a left wing person who has analyzed the situation that was the Nazi’s and decided that these people chose evil. Also they only way for the people who chose to do good that were individuals, of whom they must accept existed, was for them to act individually, and they did make a difference. Left wing people, such as this source, must accept that there are individuals in the world that make a difference for the better
