The Holocaust was the systematic killing and extermination of millions of Jews and other Europeans by the German Nazi state between 1939 and 1945. Innocent Europeans were forced from their homes into concentration camps, executed violently, and used for medical experiments. The Nazis believed their acts against this innocent society were justified when hate was the motivating factor. The Holocaust illustrates the consequences of prejudice, racism, and stereotyping on a society. It forces societies to examine the responsibility and role of citizenship, in addition to approaching the powerful ramifications of indifference and inaction. (Holden Congressional Record). Despite the adverse treatment of the Jews, there are lessons that can be learned from the Holocaust: The Nazi’s rise to power could have been prevented, the act of genocide was influenced by hate, and the remembrance of the Holocaust is of the utmost importance for humanity.

Through Frankl's view of suicide you can discover his view of human person. Suicide is wrong in all cases, and should not be even considered an option. He believes that all people can find some meaning in life which would prevent them from giving up all hope and ending their lives. Every human life has meaning, and therefore every human life has value. While in a concentration camp serving as a doctor to those who were ill with typhus or other diseases, he encountered two individuals who had given up hope on life. He asked them both to think of something worth living for. One answered that he had a son waiting for him at home, and the other said he was writing a book and wanted to finish it. Frankl helped them find meaning in their lives to hold on to some hope. Just as they did, anyone can find a meaning to live for, whether it be another person or a goal or achievement.

Elie Wiesel speaks about the Holocaust and the perished Jews. No one spoke for the Jews, because they were afraid of Hitler, that makes them just as guilty. Elie leads his speech up to the quote “Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never

According to Elie Wiesel’s Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech, the Holocaust was partly caused by the world staying silent. In the memoir Night by Elie Wiesel, the injustices committed by the Nazis is shown though Wiesel’s firsthand experience of the Holocaust in several concentration camps. This in addition to the documentary Bully, which shows how ignorance of everyday injustices may lead to dangerous consequences, implies that silence is not acceptable in these types of situations. Although it may be easier to remain unheard and stay silent, it is best to speak up for others who cannot do so themselves because of the threatening results of ignorance. Lack of interference with a problem will typically end in the situation becoming worse

The Holocaust, only two words but mean so much more. Pavel Friedman and Kristina Chiger were Jewish and they wanted Freedom. They were in Poland in 1942 when the Germans were coming to kill the Jewish and bring them to concentration and extermination camps. Kristina and Pavel ´s family tried to escape using the sewers,. Pavel got caught during this and was brought to the ghetto and killed about 7 months after. But, Kristina and the rest of her family made it down to the sewers without getting caught and stayed there for 14 months straight. The Holocaust was as dangerous as letting someone get away with a murder.

In Germany and Eastern Europe the Holocaust was started by Adolf Hitler because he disliked the Jews. He thought they caused the Great Depression which was from the collapse of the stock market. Also in Night by Elie Wiesel, he has seen hundreds of innocent people die before his eyes. During the holocaust many Jews died under the Nazis rule in Germany because the Germans didn't like them because of what they did. Many people died because of the conflict continuing between the Nazi's and Jews. The texts will be explained from the poem "Never Shall I Forget" by Elie Wiesel and "The Little Polish Boy" by Peter Fischl. These explain what it was like to be a Jew in captivity for many days and not having enough to eat, drink or sleep. But in Fischl's poem "The Little Polish Boy" this explains what it feels like to not speak up for other people. One personal truth, I have gained through studying these texts is that Hitler wanted justice for all Jews because he didn't want people that weren't like him alive.

The Holocaust was one of the largest genocides in the history of the world. An estimated amount of over 11 million people were killed over that Dark Age in human history. All caused by the horrid visions of one man Adolf Hitler. The Holocaust to me is proof that widespread chaos can be caused by ill set speeches. Adolf was said to be one of the best speakers of his age. He convinced hundreds of thousands of German people that his cause was noble and just. This in the end, resulted in grave and despicable darkness for the people of the Jewish religion.

The Holocaust is one of the most prominent examples of injustice against humanity. It was a genocide against Jewish people, this happened during the period of the Second World War, by the Nazi community led by Hitler, a leader of the German people. One of the most important factors was that they did not respect their rights, human rights are indispensable for human beings, they cannot be denied to anyone, regardless distinction of nationality, sex, ethnicity, language, religion or any other distinction, we all have equal rights.

Throughout history, the world has seen many horrible acts committed against its people, but of all these acts none are as horrendous as the Holocaust. This event led to the prosecution and execution of millions of people just because those from the Nazi Regime felt they were superior. The Nazis invaded Poland because of this assumed superiority over the Jewish population, and since Nazis thought that the Jews were beneath them they sent them to concentration camps to be worked like animals and to die. The entire world saw this as inhumane, but unlike the Polish and German Jews, the entire world did not experience this great atrocity first hand.

The phenomenon of culling spikes on high fence ranches has been researched intensively for the past fifty years with good arguments on both sides. However, culling spikes may be a little too extreme since they can become a marketable animal in the future. Allowing them to mature is essential to see what they can be before considering them a cull. Culling spikes in certain areas can potentially decrease the density of a herd in arid environments where fawn crops are erratic. Nutrition of the doe is equally important as the buck in improving herd genetic quality. Therefore, the culling of spikes is not necessary to improve the genetic quality of a herd, but to give the spike an extra year of development to allow him to catch up with his genetic

Though the concept of social injustice is universal in nature, the experience varies with each person. Factors like a person’ race, or gender can further influence the severity of the injustice; victims caught in the overlap between discriminations often go unrecognized by the law and society. Many people recognize the names Michael Brown, Eric Garner, and Tamir Rice as African Americans who were murdered by local police. But names like Michelle Cusseaux, Tanish Anderson, and Meagan Hockaday often receive less feedback even though they are also murdered African Americans. The only distinction between the sets of names is gender. Even within racial injustice, discrimination is present between genders as some cases get national

It was said by an anonymous author, that war changes the inherently good and unique spirit of the human race into the brute savages that they once had been. In The True Story of Hansel and Gretel characters have never known freedom from this war torn Europe. Bloodshed and violence are all that these characters have lived with and therefore we see no other traits other than those that are a direct result of these unfortunate and gruesome circumstances. Throughout this book, the actions of Major Frankel, although looked upon as always evil, give the reader a sense that before these atrocities were committed he had an inherently good heart.

The social injustice I humbly relate to is the intolerance toward Hispanic populations in America; whether the person is documented or undocumented. Before moving to Carthage, Missouri; I had essentially no interaction with Hispanic people. Embarrassingly, I admit, I relied on stereotypes to build my opinion of the Hispanic population as a whole. On May 22nd, 2011, we lost our home, every personal belonging, and our car in the Joplin tornado. We anxiously awaited our homeowner's insurance payout; with three dogs and nowhere to stay, we fretted, meanwhile homes available for sale shrunk by the hour. Soon, an acquaintance approached us, he had a home in Carthage; that was for sale and vacant. Built in 1910, I immediately fell in love with the home; it is my perfect home, with historically abundant features.

The premise of Frankl’s book is that mankind’s desire for meaning is much stronger than its desire for power or pleasure and that if man can find meaning in life he can survive anything. Frankl introduces this idea [which he calls the theory of logotherapy] throughout his concentration camp experiences in the book’s first section and delves deeper into it in the second section. Referencing Nietzsche, Frankl tells us “Those who have a 'why' to live, can bear with almost any 'how'” (p. 80). The most important thing to be learned from this statement is that no matter what your circumstances are, you can be happy, or at least survive, if you find a meaning or purpose in life. While in the concentration camp Frankl tells us that in order to maintain his desire to have a meaningful life he focused on three main things: suffering, work, and love. Of sacrifice

Communitarian critics of Rawls have argued that his A Theory of Justice provides an inadequate account of individuals in the original position. Michael Sandel, in Liberalism and the Limits of Justice argues that Rawls' conception of the person divorces any constitutive attachments that persons might have to their ends. Hence, Sandel asserts that Rawls privileges the standpoint of self-interested individuals at the expense of communal interests. I do not find Sandel's specific criticisms to be an accurate critique of what Rawls is doing in A Theory of Justice. However, this does not mean the more general thrust of the communitarian analysis of Rawls' conception of the person must be abandoned. By picking up the pieces
