Breaking Boundaries Of Tradition History

Schindler’s List was a movie based on the novel “Schindler’s Ark”. This movie showed a heroic man who saved over 1000 jews. His name was Oskar Schindler. At first, he was wasn’t affected that much by the Holocaust, but over time he grew sympathy and felt bad for Jews. He began to bring in Jews into his factory even if they weren’t up to work. He tried getting everyone that was available to “work” in his factory. He knew how to get his way, so he wanted a new factory built and he got it. He has a list typed out listing each Jew we wanted to work for him. This is exactly where the movie title came from if you couldn’t tell. Though he did save over 1000 Jews, he lost everything at the end. But it all seemed worth it to him. All he wanted to do is save everyone from this terrible war. My opinion on this movie is that it seemed to demonstrate things way better than a documentary would. It showed at least one good man that felt bad and it showed his side of the story. How hard he tried to save everyone with trying to be very secretive about it.

“The 40,000,000-50,000,000 deaths incurred in World War II to make it the bloodiest conflict, as well as the largest war, in history” (Hughes, Thomas A., World War II | 1939-1945). This was a global war where everyone was impacted, because of all the alliances that brought everyone into the war in the first place. World War II introduced many new powerful weapons, being used during the war that most people had not yet seen before. The Holocaust was an event during World War II where Jewish people were removed from the population. During this time concentration camps were being entrenched, and death squads were beginning to execute the people who filled the camp. They executed in mass shootings and buried them in substantial sized graves throughout

After many events, we can see what moral humans are capable of. Humans can change so fast just because of selfishness, a tragic event, and more. This can relate to a police officer witnessing a horrible death and changing his beliefs and visions. Except in the Holocaust, people changed for the worse. Lastly, the Holocaust made cruel, vicious men do horrible

From 1933 to 1945, millions of lives were thrown into chaos because of the Holocaust. Families were ripped apart and values were washed away as citizens were forcefully placed in concentration camps to either be immediately killed or to work until they died. Every person within the camps faced unthinkable trauma. Once everyone was released, the prisoners began to search for lost loved ones and a sense of normality. However, the anguish did not end with the end of the Holocaust. Following the Holocaust, first generation survivors developed abnormal values, societal dependence, and a need to avoid the topic of the Holocaust as an effect of their trauma; these side effects were then passed down to future generations

For the past 300 years, the world’s society has displayed lots of unbelievable human cruelty. For example, slavery in the 18th and 19th century, African Americans were forced into harsh work labor because of their skin color. Then in the 20th century, a determined dictator, Adolf Hitler, murdered and tortured eleven million lives. This horrifying event was called the Holocaust, it occurred in 1933 but ended in 1945. Adolf Hitler was angered about the result of World War 1, so he blamed Jewish people, the disabled, and other groups. During the holocaust, the eleven million lives were forced into harsh work labors or was put into gas chambers and was killed instantly. People described the Holocaust as inhumane act, and the people that survived it, could really say it was a scarring memory.

History is like a huge puzzle. People can keep find missing pieces to the story as they learn more about it. The Holocaust was one of those moments in history that has lead our minds to curiosity about why such a thing would occur at some point in time. For example, concentration camps. Concentration camps are one of those moments in history that make people’s jaws drop because of how flabbergasted they are to even hear of such a thing. Once you hear about one fact about the Holocaust and concentration camps you want to know every little detail about it to try and analyze what was happening and how it happened. Concentration camps in the Holocaust were a turning point in history because it lead to the deaths of millions of people.

The Holocaust in the eyes of historians all across the country reiterate the importance of the Holocaust. As the first mass genocide so major in a group of people, it’s relevance continues to make a stand. Taking place in 1933 all the way until 1945, the Holocaust changed so much in so little time. Amass, 5-6 million jewish people dying from either being worked to death for taken to gas chambers and killed quietly. Though nothing about the Holocaust was quiet, as it’s name and hitler's wishes were spread across germany in its time of need. An event short enough to be considered just a blip, tacts itself up as one the largest genocides in history. It begs the question among educators and parents alike, whether schools should be teaching the Holocaust. But, the Holocaust is something that cannot be left untaught. The Holocaust should be vocalized to students because they have a right to an education and because it boosts their understanding of society and forms them into better civilians. Also because the side effects of bias in classrooms

One of the first connections I made, was the one where the Jews were treated poorly, and what it had shown in the movie. Throughout Schindler’s List, we see the Jews being bombarded with insults and racial slurs. A majority of the people saying these things, seemed to be neighbors of the Jews, before the Jews were moved to concentration camps or ghettos.

A fact which we all have to emit is that humanity existence always creates conflicts and fighting which we call "WAR". In war, people kill each others for many reasons ---- resources, personal benefits, territories, powers, revenge, etc. In war, one becomes a hero for killing human lives and eventually he gets honored and well-known in people 's heart. The Holocaust, according to Germans, was the war between Germans and Jews. Approximately six million Jews included 960,000 innocent children died during Hitler 's regime called Nazism. Unlike the "hero(s)" whom people honor, the Holocaust was a hideous crime and the participants were bloody murderers. Today people are taught about the Holocaust

The word Holocaust evokes negative thoughts in people's minds. If it does that now imagine how it was like living through that torment, and thinking I'm better off dead than alive, and watching yourself slowly dying as each day goes by.The Holocaust took place in the midst of a world war automaticity increasing its significance to people in the world. Around 11 million innocent lives were taken majority targeting the people of the Jewish religion, but Hitler's overall goal was to exterminate everyone

The Holocaust not only affected the areas where it took place, it affected the entire world. Even though Jewish people were the main victims in the Holocaust, it also left lasting effects on other groups of people. Both the Nazi and Jewish decedents still feel the aftermath of one of the most horrific counts of genocide that the world has ever encountered. The cries of the victims in concentration camps still ring around the globe today, and they are not easily ignored. Although the Holocaust took place during World War Two, the effects that it had on the world are still prominent today.

The Nazi slaughter of European Jews during World War II, commonly referred to as the Holocaust, occupies a special place in our history. The genocide of innocent people by one of the world's most advanced nations is opposite of what we think about the human race, the human reason, and progress. It raises doubts about our ability to live together on the same planet with people of other cultures and persuasions.

The victims of this war were the Jewish population and during the war many people’s faith in God were tested. “For I belong to a traumatized generation, one that experienced the abandonment and solitude of our people.” (119) Therefore the older generation who survived the Holocaust are now traumatized and scared and this could cause metal health issues to many of these people. The criminals of the Holocaust were most countries around the world but mostly it was the German Army. “That I have tried to keep the memory alive, that I have tried to fight those who would forget.” The next generation of Germans were feeling guilty of what their people have done to a specific population but now they cannot prove how sorry they are. The impact of the war is that everyone will remember it but we can always change the future for it not to happen

Watching Schindler's list I decided to focus on Oskar Schindler. Throughout the movie Schindler personal emotions change on the war. In the beginning we see that it was a good thing for business that nothing else mattered as long as he made money. When Jews would come up he wouldn't care about them because he knew he could manipulate them and earn more money since they needed him. Schindler didn't really care for the Jews and what would happen to them. We see that Schindler only concern is that his business profits in the war. His concern for going to parties were to make connection that would better his money earning business. Money was his only concern which is why he went out seeking a jew. Since having a jew made it so they could be payed less than a normal person and they would be to scared to not do work. If he got a Jew it would earn him more money than hiring a German accountant. After getting an accountant he goes and seek workers for his factory. The workers are Jews since they don't need to be payed to be working. We later learn that his wife influences him with making business and wanting to succeed. He came from a place where he had nothing and is just beginning to make it. Hes making so much money he doesn't know what to do and he thanks the war for that. With his business doing so well he starts to care about his workers. He cares about them because he needs them to continue making the money.He starts really caring about his accountant Stern he makes sure he

The Jews that Schindler protected lived a much different life than Schindler himself. Life for them was turned upside down as there were “no set rules to live by.” The Schindlerjuden lived every day in fear of never having another, never feeling totally sure of what the future had in store for them. They weren’t sure if they would be able to walk across the Plaszow concentration camp without being shot by Amon Goeth, they weren’t sure if they would be sent off to an extermination camp, they weren’t sure if they would ever be able to live the life they had. This uncertainty can be seen in Schindler’s List. One moment the women Schindlerjuden were about to have a better life in Schindler’s new factory in Czechoslovakia, the next they were accidentally routed to Auschwitz, and the next they were safely returned to
