When We Went Into The Ghettos
We were sent into the ghettos and people were arguing whether he ghettos were good as they were at least safe, but it could still be better. A few days after the Nazis started running into the ghettos and killing people, almost every one was sent to work camps. I was able to hide and get away by running into the sewers but i had to leave my beloved behind. When I went back to try to convince her to come with me but by the time I was there she was gone. When I went back on the streets to escape I saw a group of nazi soldiers i started to move all the luggage and bags in the street aside. I said that I was ordered to do this so they wouldn't trip they laughed at me and continued to march along.

    History 5.04

    We were stuffed into train crafts, over crowed without any space to sit. We had a bucket as a toilet for about 35 people. I felt the presence of evil from the begging, and even though I know were heading to Auschwitz I don't have any predictions for my future. As soon as we stepped off the train we were separated into two groups. To me the groups were workers and the other were the useless. I haven't seen my mother or baby sister nor my grandmother. Me and my father escaped and are once again in hiding. We tried locating our family but we cant find anyone from the other group, but have seen bodies being disposed and the crematoria. I haven't slept but I've cried, consistently. As well as my father were torn down we understand what is going and are hopeless. I know the year, 1943. But not the day nor month. Help? I don’t expect it, not after 4…

    5.04 the holocaust

    Hey there my name is Sofie I am 8 years old, before the holocaust started I lived in Kaunas, Lithuania. I remember the day that my family and I were taken, I had just gotten to the dining table and started eating breakfast momma made all of my favorites that morning because it was the day before my birthday it is what she does every year. Two men who looked like soldiers knocked on the door papa invited them in and offered them breakfast, the politely declined and told us that we need to pack one suitcase of only our necessities. When papa asked him why the solider responded firmly telling papa that he just needed to do as he was told, and so we did. I really wish we never would have gone with the soldiers that morning, it was a terrible mistake.…

    Why The Holocaust Was Bad

    It’s simple to say that the Holocaust was bad. I don’t think it was third grade and I already knew that. In A Good Day from Survival in Auschwitz, an autobiography by Primo Levi, and Night, an autobiography by Elie Wiesel, I learned the very different first-hand experiences of two young men who dealt with persecution from the Nazi Officers, during the time of the Holocaust. Now although these stories are very different, in truth, they both share similarities as well.…

    The Holocaust: The Role Of Families In The Holocaust

    People always say family is everything and they are the people that get you through the rough times. My family always helps me through the rough times in my life, I cannot imagine how someone who is barley receiving any nutrients in their body can survive the emotional challenges of being in a concentration camp. I decided to go with the topic of families in the Holocaust because the Holocaust was one of the first genocides I thought of. When we were told to be more specific I thought what better than the family life during and after the Holocaust. I had heard stories of couples that were never reunited and children who never saw their parents again and I wanted to learn more about what really happened and any information I could. I read many personal stories while doing research, that really helped give me more of an insight of how hard it was to build your life back and find your…

    5.04 Holocaust

    I was sitting with my family at the breakfast table drinking milk and eating a piece of burnt toast; that was when I heard the feint sound of sirens coming from the east end of the block. My dads face grew pale and my mother quickly stood up and grabbed my brother and mines hand. She guided us towards the back of the house through a small opening in the floor. Once we reached the hole, she took my brothers hand and placed it in mine, telling him to watch over me. We were put into the hole and she kissed our heads, then covered the little light we had with a rug. I started to panic, unaware of the destruction and persecution that lay before me on a silver platter. We spent a week in that ditch, although it had felt like a lifetime. All the while, I thought of my parents: where had they gone; would they soon return? One day while we were there, with cramps building up in my legs, I heard footsteps coming from above my head. My brother hoping it was our parents returning to save us from the forever darkness that we faced slid the rug over and peered up with squinting eyes. The rough man standing above us, however, was not our father, but a man I would soon come to know as, Nazi soldier. The reasons of our taking were not because of crime, but because of my ethnicity, the way I looked, the way I spoke, and even my religion.…

    There have been times in my life where I have been lucky and ashamed at then same time. I know many people such as friends, family etc who have been lucky & and ashamed but some at the same time and some at different times.

But being lucky isn’t always about winning the lottery or having things other people don’t have and you enjoy having it. Being lucky is basically waking up thanking god he blessed you with another day!…

    The Jim Crow Era

    Between 1877 and 1920, white southerners were persistent about limiting the rights of African Americans by setting out objectives they soon wish to accomplish that demanded blacks to remain inferior throughout society. The Jim Crow era was characterized by legalized segregation, lynch mobs, and white supremacy which caused a dark oppressive period of American race relations from 1890 to 1910 (Campbell). The period which the states of Confederacy were controlled by the federal government and social legislation which granted African Americans new rights consisted of a time frame called the Reconstruction period. The Reconstruction period resulted as one of the main causes of why the Jim Crow era began rising throughout the nation. In 1865, the…

    Diary Entry Of The Holocaust Diary By Frank Krebs

    I look outside and see all Jewish businesses being burned down, or severely damaged. Not only are their businesses being destroyed they are being pulled out from their homes a lot of the times dragged out and beaten. The Nazi mobs were vicious towards them worse than ive seen before sometimes beating the Jews in the city by the hundreds. I have a choice to make, do I try and save my girlfriend and risk being caught or do I just give her up to them and never see her again. I can’t do that to her I need to find a place for her to hide a place they would never think to look here. The mob is almost to my house I have to think quickly or I will loose her to those monsters. I told her to go outback and under the stairs outside there’s an opening she would be safe there. I had no intention of telling Goebbels to see if he could help because he was the one that put in the newspaper to do this so all he would do is turn me in. as I started to calm door I hear a knock at my door but there was no shouting I open it and before my eyes was a family, a Jewish family that had escaped and asked for my help. I had to think but think quickly cause the mob was only down the street, so I told them to go where I had told my girlfriend to o and wait till I came and got them. The mob was finally at my door they asked if I had any Jews in here I said no. The people barged in and started to raid my home…

    Hitler Youth: Diary Entry Of A Burning Book

    It was my job as the Hitler Youth. I had to go to the home of a family that had been killed and burn all the “un-german” books. It reminded me of the first time that I had seen a Nazi act of aggression. This is because they burnt a bonfire in the middle of the street for everyone to see. Burning books was a big celebration type thing where that nazi’s celebrated being stupid. Every one of the Nazis that were there were very happy to be there. But, the only reason the the Hitler Youth was there is…

    Every once in a while there were antifundamentalist meetings where I would give out flyers and we would yell, “Guns may shoot and knives may carve, but we won’t wear your silly scarves!” Until one day things got nasty and I saw violence with my own eyes, it was our last demonstration. Things got worse and worse and my parents decided to go to…

    Book Thief Reflection

    Although his story is very different from the original Holocaust experiences we tend to think about, it is unique in its own way. I feel as though you could feel some safety by not being in the concentration camps, but at the same time you had to work really hard and stay on top of your duties because you were doing it directly for a SS Officer, and if he felt you were not doing the job the way he wanted, he could just kill you right then and there. It would almost feel so overwhelming and stressful to do the manual duties for a SS. This man’s story is very straight forward and factual. The emotions he felt during this experience seem to be almost too strong to put down on paper. They may be too hard for him to explain. Arthur looks like such a nice man, to be honest. If I had the chance to sit down and meet with, I would definitely ask how he felt during these situations. I would ask him if he felt safer in the house of a SS Officer or more intimated, rather…
