Wars, bullying, and mistreatment have been held all throughout history and they still happen every day. Wars may not seem as common as they were in the past but they still happen. The things happening in the world are very damaging, and it would take an effort of everyone to fix it. Though this may seem to be impossible to happen as it is hard to change the behavior of people there is a slight possibility of it happening. If mankind was able to support everyone’s beliefs and respect everyone’s opinion wars may not happen. There has also been a lot of mistreatment of people throughout history as well; slavery takes a big part in this as it was a very controversial subject. This is quite a lot to ask for and it would require intense effort to …show more content…
The ones who had to live through this truly suffered not only did they have to live in the constant fear of being caught and sent to concentration camps, but they also had to hide themselves from the outside world for their own protection. The worst part about this is that if one was not able to afford a place to hide, they are taken to a concentration camp to die a painful death. It can be seen what the people had to go through during that time and it truly causes a great form of sorrow.
WWII was truly a depressing time in history. When thinking about this it brings out true emotion towards the people who had to suffer through this. Seeing how the Nazis treated the Jews really shows mistreatment. The Jews that were taken into concentration camps were treated horribly. They were either forced to work to death or died of disease. Whichever way it was they were both horrid. When the Nazis put them in concentration camps they didn’t care for them whatsoever, they left them there to die in whatever way came first. WWII or the Holocaust was a horrid time and people were treated

Sadly this has been going on for years. People have been judged by their racial background and how they look. It is very sad to realize that this is still going on in the world today. There have been laws placed to prevent racial discrimination to happen in some accounts such as employment and public causes. Though there are laws preventing this act in some cases it can still be done and it is done. People have opinions and people are racist, so they do these kinds of things. As much we want to prevent this it is almost impossible as one cannot change the behavior of mankind, but people are able to change their own behavior which can help prevent mistreatment. Slavery is a huge aspect of mistreatment. Thankfully slavery is illegal in every country now. Though it is said to be illegal small acts of it still happens today. Slavery is not like before where one person owns another person, but, forced labor. In the past slaves were owned by people and forced into labor, they were also able to be bought by others. Today slaves are still forced into labor this typically occurs as a form of paying off debt. Whether its slavery in the form of one owning another or slavery in the form of forced labor they are both brutal acts of
The atrocities that the Jews were subjected to during the World War ll are by far the most unjust and unjustifiable crimes in human history. Ellie Wiesel’s testimony is heartbreaking. Seeing Auschwitz’s camp through Elie's eyes is very different from seeing it in any other way. It still seems unbelievable that an entire nation was sentenced to death just because they did not have blue eyes and blond hair. The cruelty that was used to remove the jews from their homes is terrifying. Additionally, removing their identities and dehumanizing them were steps in confining the Jews to a faith that resembles animals waiting to be slaughtered. Finally, the killing that is happening day and night in the gas chambers is beyond the most disturbing and scary
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
During the Holocaust the Jews were seen as creatures and treated as if they were creatures. When Moishe the Beadle came back from the forest where he was forced to dig holes by the Hungarians, He said he saw terrible scenes. Moishe said, “Infants were tossed into the air and used as targets for the machine guns.”(Wiesel 6), But the people of Signet didn’t believe Moishe, The jews that were in the camps probably could’ve avoided all the pain and suffering throughout their time in the camps.That quote proves that the Nazis did not care about the Jews and were doing it out of pure joy and following orders. That quote also showed to what low-level we can come down to.Living in the concentration camp meant your life could be taken away any second for any reason. The Nazis took lives that didn't matter to Jews but it could’ve meant the world for them.
This book was effective and achieved the purpose of describing the Holocaust in a personal and relative manner. I do not think anyone who reads this book does not finish it with a better understanding of what the victims of concentration camps experienced. This book
"There may be times when we are powerless to prevent injustice, but there must never be a time when we fail to protest," a quote by Elie Wiesel. In history we always make sure that we remember what was important, and even some of the things that weren't. This may seem like it doesn't matter, like it's utterly irrelevant, but I promise it is actually very important. The Holocaust was a exceedingly important event in history, it should be known by everybody and every generation, while never being forgotten. This is because it is a significant example of what cruel people can do in this world, it shows us what mistakes not to make again, and it helped our world believe that people can be different without being killed.
The atrocities that had occurred during the holocaust are something this world is never going to forget. Innocent lives were taken for an immoral cause. This bloodshed and terror that had rained upon the Jews is something society must never let happen again. During this period of time people were treated as numbers, tools, and most importantly dissociated from society. It was a time where because of race, religion, and beliefs segregation was deemed okay. The pain and suffering that this world continues to burden due to these conditions is something people must take the time to mourn over. Malice can form even in the most good hearted men and is found in every person. It is terrifying to think that this same malice overcame a man named Hitler who had the power to exterminate an entirety of people because of their race. From this immorality the Jews had lost their independence and were subjected to suffering a horrendous state for who they were.
World War II was a terrible, chaotic war with many deaths. Innocent people were killed, only because they were a different race. During World War II, the Germans/Nazis absolutely hated the Jews for no good reason. There were prisons built to torture and use Jews for forced labor. Those prisons were called concentration camps. In World War II, three of these concentration camps were same of the largest ones created and were called the Auschwitz, Buchenwald, and the Dachau. The Auschwitz had three main camps and was located 37 miles of Krakow, the Buchenwald was constructed in 1937 about five miles northwest of Weimar, and the Dachau was one of the first camps created and has an incident that leads to many deaths.
Throughout history of the world , we have experienced many horrific occurrences, two of these being the Holocaust and Japanese internment. Although both of these incidents are terrible, the Holocaust was much worse. The Jewish people were put ti to concentration camps but by Nazis by Adolph Hitler was racist towards them. The Japanese were relocated to internment camps. The way of life in these camps are way worse then anyone knows.
Enslaved people were treated extremely harshly by Southern slave owners. Slaves were instructed to do heavy labor, and if they did not worth to their maximum ability they were cruelly treated with whippings, beatings, and they were sometimes even maimed. Slaves barely had enough food, clothing, and shelter to get through
Slaves went through many trials,struggles, and challenges in the American South throughout their lives. Some struggles were how they were treated and how their families were treated. But out of all this a few people had hope and courage to fight for their freedom and rights. One struggle that slaves were put through was how they were mistreated. Slaves were beaten and mistreated for the work and effort they gave.
“The Nazi Holocaust 1938-1945 6,000,000 Deaths.”(2) That many deaths in a 7 year period is just horrific. “It began with a simple boycott of Jewish shops and ended in the gas chambers at Auschwitz as Adolf Hitler and his followers attempted to exterminate the entire Jewish population of Europe.”(2) Hitler obviously hated the jews he blamed them for everything. He blamed them for all of germany’s problems. “The first mass arrest of Jews also occurred as over 25,000 men were hauled off to concentration camps.”(2) Then the Night of Broken Glass happened and Jewish shops and synagogues were all burned. “The Night of Broken Glass (kristallnacht) occurred on Nov. 9 & 10 after a 17yrd. Herschel Grynszpan shot and killed Ernst Vom Rath, a German embassy official in Paris, in retaliation for the harsh treatment of his Jewish parents had received from the Nazis.”(2) This was not a smart idea because what happened after he did that was horrendous. The Germans retaliated in a big way. “Ninety Jews were killed, 500 synagogues were burned and most of the Jewish shops had their windows smashed.”(2) Innocent people died and their stores had smashed windows, they must have been terrified. “Spurred on by Joseph Goebbels, Nazis used the death of Vom Rath as an excuse to conduct the first state-run program against jews.”(2) If boy wouldn’t have done what he did all the tragedies that happened afterwards probably
It was a huge tragic for millions of families. The Jews were killed, got sick, starved to death and were tricked all by the Nazis. According to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum 2018 25, “In 1945, when Anglo-American and Soviet troops entered the concentration camps, they discovered piles of corpses, bones, and human ashes—testimony to Nazi mass murder. Soldiers also found thousands of Jewish and non-Jewish survivors suffering from starvation and disease. For survivors, the prospect of rebuilding their lives was daunting.”
Slavery as a Cruel Institution Cruelty can be defined as an inhumane action done to an individual or group of people that causes either physical or mental harm. Slavery, at its very core, was a cruel and inhumane institution. From the idea behind it to the way that it was enforced, it degraded the lives of human beings and forbade the basic liberties that every man deserves under the Constitution of the United States. Three major areas where cruelty was especially prevalent were in the slaves working conditions, living conditions, and loss of fundamental freedoms. Working conditions for slaves were about as bad as can possibly be imagined. Slaves worked from dawn till dusk and sometimes even longer. Solomon Northrup describes his
Throughout history of the world , we have experienced many horrific occurrences, two of these being the Holocaust and Japanese Internment. Although both of these incidents are terrible, the Holocaust was much more miserable. The Jewish people were placed into Concentration camps by the Nazis, but Adolph Hitler was racist towards them. The Japanese were relocated to Internment camps. The way of life in these camps is way negligent.
The German Soldiers did many things to Jews, and it should have been stopped earlier than it did. The way that they treated the children and the prisoners were worse than what it ever should have been. “Get up! Roll call!” We stood. We were counted. We sat down. We got up again. Over and over. We waited impatiently to be taken away. What were they waiting for? Finally, the order came: “Forward! March!” (19). They were treated like dogs doing the same thing over and over, waiting for something good to happen, waiting to be taken away. Not caring about their lives is one thing, but they also did not care if it was just one person that messed up. Everyone would be killed if one person made
