In 1942, millions of jews lost their lives to hitler’s forces. The world wanted to take action. In 2015, the world still is not taking action and repeating the same mistakes of 73 years prior. The world hasn't learn there lesson from the Holocaust. One reason is that there is terrorist groups killing people for no reason. Isis is killing them because they don’t want to fight. The Syrian Refugee are being slaves and having to work with little money and do more then one thing and living in tents. They are being locked inside fences and not be able to go no where besides wants in inside the fence. There is more then one group doing this there are a lot of groups doing this because they want them to fight for them and no leave the country and
These attacks are typically found in unstable or developing countries, which many are accepting Syrian Refugees. Allyson Schwartz explains throughout (Doc 6) that terrorists typically are not angry and want to cause harm because they discriminate, but because the idea of people living free, peacefully, and happy causes them pain. Throughout the world there are vastly different opinions on the Syrian Refugee crisis, and the countries should continue to send aid and resettle the Refugees, because if any other country was in the same situation, they would want
This sociological analysis will define the theory of social conflict to define the underlying racial, social, and cultural tension of the current Syrian refugee crisis in Canada. The current Syrian immigrant crisis in Canada defines some of the major problems of established racial “norms”, European “values”, and “resources”, such as job opportunities, that inhibit the integration of these people into Canadian society. Angus Reid’s (2016)) provides a current context in which the traditional view of ethnic and racial tolerance in Canada is challenged by a polls done on the subject. These three sociological concepts define the social conflict that is occurring in Canada due to the arrival of Syrian refugees. This CBC news story defines the underlying
Everyday, people all over the world are removed from their homes and forced to leave. You could be pushed out of your house from a foreclosure, or pushed out of your country from an extremist. In society today, thousands upon thousands of people are fleeing to a new country they can call “home” and where they can feel safe. Among these people, a big majority are the Syrian people. The Syrian Refugee Crisis has been relevant for about four years since the start of the Syrian civil war that began in March 2011, and is comparable to the Native Americans being pushed from their home lands. The Syrian Refugee Crisis equates to the Trail of Tears because both Syrians and refugees alike were pushed out of their homes, they were both forced to find
During World War II, the world faced one of the most devastating genocides. This genocide is known as the Holocaust. A systematic mass murder of six million Jews and five million non-Jews. This includes gypsies, homosexuals, Polish, Russians, Jehovah Witnesses, politicians, and the mental or physically disabled. This totals out to eleven million people murdered over something preventable like hate and racism. The world learned from this that these actions can lead to terrible things. It’s our job to remember the past and learn from the mistakes made.
On September of 2015, the image of 3-year-old Aylan Kurdi went viral. “The toddler’s lifeless body on a Turkish beach had reverberated across the globe” (Parkinson & George-Cosh, 2015). Aylan’s family had “fled the brutal civil war in their native Syria and only attempted the boat crossing after Canada denied their application of admission as refugees. The image led to an astonishing outpouring of support for Syrian refugees” (Hein & Niazi, 2016).

Refugees are turned inside out and back again when fleeing and finding a home, just like Ha and her family in Inside Out & Back Again by Thanhha Lai. A universal refugee experience is the process of refugees fleeing their homes. Ha from the book Inside Out & Back Again is an example of the universal refugee experience because she is a refugee fleeing her home in Vietnam because of a war. Before Ha flees home, she is a stubborn character.
I am writing this letter to you because I believe that the Syrian Refugee Crisis needs to be added to the grade ten Canadian History Since World War One course.
Syrian refugees today and German-Jewish refugees during the 1930's share many difficulties. Both the articles, "Fresno Family Represents the Plight of Syrian Refugees," and "Jews' Tale Plays Out Again as Syrian Refugees Find Resistance to US Entry" both prove that the Jews and Syrians issues are very similar. The US denied the German-Jewish refugees entrance, and now we are doing the same again with almost all of the Syrian refugees. The Jews from Germany in the 1930's during the Holocaust and the refugees from Syria today both face many hardships such as plight, prejudice, and discrimination, not to mention that they were, and are, criticized harshly.
Refugee’s lives turn “inside out” by separation, no choices, and traveling. Lives are turned inside out by no choice in what they want. In the article, “Refugees: Who, Where, Why?” it says, “Since early times large groups of people have been forced to flee their homelands.” Overall this tells me even if they wanted to stay with all of the chaos going on they couldn’t. Separation also turns lives inside out. I know this because in the poem “Watch over us page 50,” it says,” father watches over us even if he’s not here…Uncle son tells us to be ready any day.” This explains that with father not being there, hopes can be down and they can struggle more. Traveling for Ha also turns them inside out. In the poem, “Last Respects.” Page 85 it says,”
Hana Pierces girl’s ears and taking care of family members children in her spare time. She helps her parent in domestic works. Dominus states that it is illegal to work in Lebanon when they are Syrian refugee because of that supervisor who let them work in the field treat them unpleasantly. One day, when Hanna asks for water while working in the field, the supervisor says that “What are you stupid?” (qtd. in Dominus), but she continues to work. She reported that the World Food Program aids $14 for each person, and the WFP raised $21. Dominus says that water shortage was difficult before the Syrian refugees into Lebanon, and it is usual two to three people get sick in the camp because of the contamination.
A refugee is defined as an individual who has been forced to leave their country due to political or religious reasons, or due to threat of war or violence. There were 19.5 million refugees worldwide at the end of 2014, 14.4 million under the mandate of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), around 2.9 million more than in 2013. The other 5.1 million Palestinian refugees are registered with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA). With the displacement of so many people, it is difficult to find countries willing to accept all the refugees. There are over 125 different countries that currently host refugees, and with this commitment comes the responsibility of ensuring these refugees have access to
Since 2011, Syria has been engaged in a Civil War with protestors against the government and members of the extremist group ISIS, and approximately 7.6 million people have been displaced from their homes (usnews.com 2015). As the conflict destroys more homes and livelihoods each year, an increasing number of civilians have been forced to leave Syria and try to find safety elsewhere. Already a contentious issue, the Syrian refugee crisis has awakened tensions, both economic and social as debate erupts over what to do with the refugees.In response to the crisis, while some countries like Germany have pledged to help the refugees, (New Statesman 2015 1) only 2,340 have been admitted. Clearly, more needs to be done in order to help the refugees. Although there are economic and population concerns to be considered, the humanitarian conflict that faces the refugees and solutions already available are reason enough for Europe to increase the numbers of Syrian refugees allowed in.
I’m sure in the past few months and years if you have turned on the news this topic has been talked about in high regard and with deep concern. A country at war, civilians pried from their homes and forced into ridicule and danger while in a search for a better life. If you haven’t caught on by now I am speaking about the Syrian refugee crisis in Europe. To really understand what should happen and what is happening you must know all things that are beyond that. First you should know that this is all a result of the Syrian Civil War started by the refusal of the Assad regime to step down during the Peaceful Arab Spring demonstration. During this protest in Syria, protesters were fired upon, some were killed, and many were injured. After this act, Syrian civilians started opening fire against government militia, and having violent protests of the government. Intern from all this, rebels leave the Syrian army to form the free Syrian army. Kurds also defect from the Assad Regime and make it a three-way battle.
When I was young I was not interested in politics or current events at all; I thought they were confusing and arbitrary in terms of their effect on my day-to-day existence. As I grew older I realized that it was my responsibility to inform myself about political and cultural happenings, both domestic and abroad, to make myself a more well-rounded and involved citizen of the world. Today, this personal mandate manifests itself in incessant refreshing of news sites - a behavior that is only beneficial in circumstances in which I need to construct an argument regarding a specific current event.
