Argumentative Essay: Should We Remember The Holocaust?

The Holocaust created a web of guilt for those living in Germany. Many Germans who participated in the war felt a lot of regret and sorrow for what they had done, but it didn't end there. The children of these people would have to face a lot of guilt

The Holocaust is remembered as one of the most vicious events in history. We have gotten the chance to try and comprehend the pain that such evil genocide left on many, through those who witnessed it. Who sorely revive it, in an attempt to make sure that the world never forgets the millions of Jews that were unjustly tortured and murdered.

The Holocaust was a dark time in humanity’s history; a time that should be looked back on in shame. People lost their compassion and empathy towards one another. These emotions are essential in keeping peace and harmony throughout the world, and give mankind a natural kindheartedness towards one another. Having the innate sense to feel for one another and understand the trials and tribulations others go through is what truly makes us human. This is what was lost during the Holocaust. The inherent good that humans are born with, was taken away by Adolf Hitler and his Third Reich. It led to the deaths of entire cultures and millions of innocent peoples’ lives were changed for the worse. However, the Nazis did not carry out the mass killings of

We cannot forget about the victims of the Holocaust because if we forget about it, it may happen again. All ages from newborns to 70 year olds were killed

One of the most important events in our history occurred from 1941 to 1945 also known as the Holocaust. It just so happens that the Holocaust is one of the most controversial topics that is thought to be fake and unrealistic, but there is evidence of bodies being found, stories of witnesses’ awful experiences and the Nuremberg trials. With so much evidence, people should believe the Holocaust existed, but no one can really know unless they were actually there and witness the events that took place. However, it is better to believe rather than to find out and feel bad in the

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.

We have seen that the Holocaust was a terrible event that we hope to never see again. It affected so many people back when it happened and it could possibly still affect people today. Young children that survived the holocaust could still be alive today. The ones that are alive and still remember the terrible and tragic events that happened are never going to forget what happened to them. Jews had been persecuted and killed for hundreds of years, but the Holocaust brought to people’s attention that the discrimination towards Jews was really bad. Hopefully the Holocaust will bring to people’s attention of how bad the discrimination was.

Not only is the Holocaust a large part of history in general, but it is a haunting part of Jewish history. Many Jewish survivors have tried to shut out their past, but it is almost impossible for them to forget something that has impacted their lives in such a huge way. One survivor, Zelda Fuksman, said, “Teaching about the Holocaust is not just our job, it's our inheritance. It's our history. We can't rewrite it and we can't forget it” (“Next Generations Holocaust…”). It is people like Zelda who help the public and Jewish community remember and learn about an important part

The Holocaust was a time in history that should always be remembered. It was an event where many people died and should never be forgotten because of what they had to go through. No one ever wants to suffer like the Jews did while they were in the concentration camps. Should the Holocaust be an event that people forget?

The holocaust was a bad time and it will never be forgotten and it should've never

When one hears about the Holocaust, what comes to mind is the suffering of the Jews. All of this began in 1933, when Adolf Hitler decided the Jews were inferior to human kind. The traumatic experiences the Jews went through are never going to be easy to forget. It’s amazing how the whole world could allow this to happen to human beings just because of their religion. Some were lucky enough to remain a family for a while, when nothing should’ve separated them in the first place. What happened because of hate should’ve never occurred. What’s okay about killing people because of their religion? It was all because of one person that is all it took, it is incredible how long this lasted, and it was a long

People in the Holocaust suffered things that a human should never go through. People suffered starvation, cold weather, no clothes, and getting beat with whips everyday. Babies, children, kids, adults, and teenagers burned and killed everyday. Not to mention, they worked in the cold winters. Jews in the 1940’s were treated like animals and were lucky if they got a meal a day. Families were separated from each other and never saw each other again. The Holocaust will never be forgotten. A human should never go through what the Jews suffered. People were forced to help kill and burn friends, family, and people they didn’t even know. The concentration camps were impossible to escape. The barbed wire fences stood 8 feet high. The only way you could

We remember and learn about the Holocaust for many reasons. It forces us to reflect on one of the most severe parts of the world's history. Hitler rose to power by working within the government. This made it extremely hard for Germans to go against Hitler's ways. His primary targets were the Jews but, by creating a detailed list of undesirables Hitler showed discrimination towards more than group of people. The Nazis began to expand on their territory in 1938. Jewish people were soon called to register themselves and were also called up for work and extermination camps. Not all Jewish people registered and like the Franks they went into hiding. Otto Frank carefully planned where they would stay and that is why their hiding was successful

Let’s take a moment and go back to the Holocaust. The Holocaust is a depressing time. Hitler was a horrible person and hated Jews. He wanted them all to die. The Holocaust began January 1933. Hitler started it all! “Over 1.1 million children died.” (important) Just children! It technically ended May 8, 1945. The Holocaust affected over 15 different countries. Anne Frank is one person that was remembered. She did die but she had a ruff life. She died from a sickness “Typhus at the Bergen Belsen Concentration Camp.” (91) If the Holocaust did not happen then these people wouldn’t have been remembered, although they would have lived a better life and live longer.

Why do we need to study the holocaust? So we never forget about that terrible things that happened. It was a very important and terrible time in history. It teaches us so many lessons . One is don’t judge people by what they believe or what they look like. If you look at it different ways then you see a lot of lesson that you can learn from the holocaust.
