Do you know how many Jews lived during the Holocaust? The Jews that lived in Europe were about 445,000. The unlucky victims went to the death camp. Homo sexuals were stripped of thier civil rights. Jews hiding places were cellars, attics basements where they had to keep quiet. They had to keep motionless and quiet as well. They went to other countries to migrate the terror.
Jews had to find places to hide from the Nazi. They hid in attics and cellars.The Jew had to keep quiet with other survivors and other religions. “Thousands of Jewish children survived in hiding.”When the children tried to keep themselves busy they had hobbies like building, writing, drawing etc. Many Jews had more survivors than expected.
60 percent of the Jews in Europe
Many people believed that the Jews would never survive the concentration camps. However, the Jews managed to stay alive physically and spiritually by working with all the strength they could muster, making the best with the rations they were given, believing in family’s promises, and having faith that they would be free once again. Therefore, people should always stay strong even when it seems like all hope is lost.
To begin with, the holocaust took place in Germany, it lasted about two years and in these two years Adolf Hitler had killed over six million Jews, Gypsies, homosexuals, and people that supported and/or defended these groups of people.
Imagine being plucked from your home and being brought to a camp to die or to work. Six million Jews died during the holocaust, but during this time there was hope. Even through difficult situations, the human spirit will always triumph. Laughter, love, and beauty of nature were what got these people through their tough times. For the people who were forced into hiding or being stuck at a camp, laughter could make them forgot everything around them.
The Holocaust was a period approximately in the same period of the Nazi Party’s power in Germany, and around the length of World War II. It began with just a simple persecution of a minority, but eventually in the later stages of the war it became something much more horrific and detestable. The Nazi Party sent Jews from all of Europe that it controlled into brutal death camps to be exterminated in one of the most bone-chillingly effective attempts at exterminating a people in all of human history. The dehumanized people in those camps died en masse, and the Jewish people are still recovering from the effects of this genocide. In the utterly grave situation during the Holocaust that people found themselves in, it is ironic that this was how
Only about 3,546,211 people survived the Holocaust. Adolf Hitler was the main leader of the Holocaust, he did this because of his discrimination of Jews. There were more than just Jews killed, there were gay people, priests, gypsies, people with mental or physical disabilities, communists, trade unionists, Jehovah’s Witnesses, anarchists, Poles and other Slavic peoples, and resistance fighters. The Holocaust happened between 1933 through 1945 in Germany and Poland. Night, is an autobiography written by Elie Wisel who was involved in the Holocaust. Auschwitz Death Camp, it is a video documentary of the death camp including Elie Wisel and Oprah Winfrey. The truth about the Holocaust to me is horrendous, all the torturing they had to go through
Over 11 million men, women and their children were killed during the Holocaust, but, more than half of them were Jewish. Innocent human beings were abducted and put into concentration camps from 1933 to 1945, where they were tortured and forced to work long hours, each day, without food or water. Eventually, more than half of the Jews were killed and only a small amount of them survived. The Holocaust happened because of one man’s plan to rid the world of all Jews. He was determined to succeed. Adolf Hitler began a movement that resulted in the execution of six million Jews.
For thousands of Jewish children the only way to survive the holocaust was to hide. When World War two was in action all Jewish people that lived in Europe were ordered to be killed no matter their wealth, religion, age, health, beliefs etc.. When children were put into hiding they were most of the time crammed into small spaces such as attics or cellars with large groups of people which caused very tight living quarters for long periods of time. Almost all of the children that were in the Holocaust that were not hidden were killed and those who survived and continued in school had to be able to pass as “non-jews” including not having an accent or strong “jewish” features that could possibly give away them or their family that was in hiding.
It is amazing to hear from the people who have actually survived the Holocaust. It shows us how much we still have to learn about the world and the civilizations and how hard it is to understand the reason why we do such things to our fellow human beings. "By 1945, two out of every three European Jews had been killed and the survivors continued to be oppressed." (Telles 51) In addition, thousands of political and religious dissidents such as communists, socialists, trade unionists, and Jehovah's Witnesses were persecuted for their beliefs and behavior and many of these individuals died as a result of maltreatment.
“Half of a million have been killed in the Holocaust and over 4 million have fled.” according to haaretz.com. Its horrible that no one spoke out during this tragic event. People of Europe, the Germans, and any other people should have spoken out during this time but Jews did nothing wrong. They were everyone's scapegoat and the Jews were crucially hurt mentally and physically in the Holocaust by no other than the man Hitler and his men, the Nazis.
This statement depicts a glimpse of what the Jewish people had to endure during the holocaust. The holocaust was an extreme form of massacre. It is the deliberate killing of a large group of people, especially those of a particular ethnic group or nation. The duration of the holocaust was from January 30th, 1933 to May 8th, 1945. The holocaust began in the year of 1933 when the Nazi party came to power, the leader Adolf Hitler believed that the Jewish people belonged to a 'low' and 'evil' race, and they were affecting the lives of the Germans pessimistically. Hitler's motto was to punish, alienate, and torture anyone who differed from him, with religion being a main factor. The Nazi’s blamed the Jews for all the social and economic problems
Many Jewish people were persecuted and killed during the Holocaust. “They were not allowed to go to most public areas such as the park” (Children and the Holocaust) “ and the Jewish children weren’t allowed to go to the same school with the other German children” (International Institute for Holocaust Research). Many families tried to leave and escape before it became dangerous for Jews to live in German occupied countries, but “lack of money and strict immigration control caused them not to be able to” (Children and the Holocaust). “Some of the lucky families were able to find a hiding place” (International Institute for Holocaust Research), or escape before the Holocaust, but some of the other “families that could not get away were sent to the ghettos or killing camps” (Children

The Holocaust was an ultimate abomination of Nazi racism that occurred between 1938 and 1945. The word Holocaust derived from the Greek word holokauston, which stands for a burnt sacrifice that is offered whole to God. The word was chosen for this occurrence because of the amount of dead bodies that were cremated in open fires by Nazis. The Holocaust was known for the mass murders of European Jews that took place during the Second World War. European Jews were the fundamental victims during the Holocaust and seemed to be the most targeted. In 1933, approximately nine million Jews lived in Europe and settle in 21 different countries. It eventually would be seized by Germany during the Second World War. By 1945, around five or six million European Jews had been brutally murdered. A majority of them died in concentration camps that were build primarily for Jews. However, Jews were not the only victims that were persecuted by Hitler’s and his Nazi regime. A half million Gypsies, mentally or physically disabled persons, and Soviet prisoners from war were also discriminated victims to Hitler’s Nazi genocide. Jehovah’s Witnesses and homosexuals were also persecuted in Europe.
The illuminated moon opened up the night. It was shining bright down on the unconscious General. That night Rainsford had thrown him out the window, attempting to kill him, but with Zaroff’s success, did not. At first glance, a person could conclude Zaroff was dead, but from a first-person view, any man can see he was slowly with a light heart moving.
When one thinks of Vincent Van Gogh, they may not initially think of his multiple health issues. Moreover, their thoughts will progress the multitude of artworks he produced during his lifetime. They will be more excited to speak of his impact on impressionism which had a substantial impact on the world of art. Along with the other impressionist greats such as Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, Paul Cezanne, Leonardo Da Vinci, Edouard Manet etc. What is little known is that how troubled he was during his lifetime and how he experienced a tumultuous series of ‘attacks” and depression.This troubled time in his life ranged from 1880, when he was institutionalized at Arles to the time of his unfortunate death on July 29, 1890. What is still left to be answered is did his multiple addictions improve the quality of his art or was he suffering from something else that drove him insane and contributed to the great prowess of his artwork?
