  1. So, why did the Germans keep such a careful record in photographs, films, and documents?

  2. So, why did the Germans keep such a careful record in photographs, films, and documents? • While the Germans destroyed some of the historical record at the end of the war and some German records were destroyed during the Allied bombing of German cities, Allied armies captured millions of documents during the conquest of Germany in 1945. Allied prosecutors submitted some 3,000 tons of records at the Nuremberg trial. http://www.ushmm.org/wlc/en/article.php?ModuleId=10007271

  3. During the Nuremberg trial, Nazi Germany's dedicated filming of itself was also turned into evidence of its crimes. • From the earliest beginnings of the Nazi Party in the 1920s, through the military invasions of World War II and graphic depictions of atrocities, German photographers and camera crews recorded (often proudly) what they accomplished in pursuit of their ideology. http://www.ushmm.org/wlc/en/article.php?ModuleId=10007271

  4. "We will show you their own films"

  5. On November 29, 1945, only a week into the trial, the IMT prosecution introduced an hour-long film titled "The Nazi Concentration Camps." • When the lights came up in the Palace of Justice all assembled sat in silence. The human impact of this visual evidence was a turning point in the Nuremberg trial. It brought the Holocaust into the courtroom. http://www.ushmm.org/wlc/en/article.php?ModuleId=10007271

  7. Write a 5-line poem. • Reflect on what you heard and learned about today in class, and then respond by writing a five-line poem. It does not have to rhyme, but it should be at least five lines and have some type of message. • Make it meaningful… Really put some thought into your word choice and what you want to say. • You should type these and then print them out for tomorrow. Use a font that is easy to read, and enlarge them to be at least 20-point font.

  8. Write an 8-line poem. • Reflect on what you heard and learned about today in class, and then respond by writing a eight-line poem. It does not have to rhyme, but it should be at least eight lines and have some type of message. • Make it meaningful… Really put some thought into your word choice and what you want to say. • You should type these and then print them out for tomorrow. Use a font that is easy to read, and enlarge them to be at least 20-point font.
