Transcription de la présentation

  1. The Holocaust The Genocide of Europe’s Jewry

  2. Why did Christians, followers of a religion stressing love and forgiveness, so often turn in hatred against innocent Jews? Why did Germany, a powerful, industrial society with a well-educated population, accept a form of anti-Semitism so extreme and cruel as to lead to the effort to destroy an entire group of human beings by the millions? Why were the democratic nations unable to find a way to stop Hitler and his Nazis from starting World War II and launching the Holocaust? Essential Questions

  3. Why did the Nazis organize the Holocaust in the form it took, of ghettos, railroad transportation to the death camps, gas chambers, and crematoria? In what ways, if any, was the Holocaust different from other genocidal events in history? Could or should the Allies have done more to rescue Jews and to stop the Holocaust once they realized it was being carried out? Essential Questions (continued)
