The Holocaust took place from January 30, 1933- May 8, 1945. During this time over 11

million people were killed, 6 million of those was Jews. The holocaust was not just a Jewish

event, records kept by Germans prove that they exterminated millions of communists like

Gypsies, Czechs, homosexuals, Jehovah’ witnesses, Mental and Physical Handicapped people,

Russians, prisoners of war and many others that we may never be able to identify. At the

concentration camps they had 6 penal categories. Regular criminals wore green, asocials,

(slackers, prostitutes, procurers etc.). wore black, political prisoners wore red, Jewish wore

yellow, homosexuals wore pink, and conscientious objectors wore purple to all be easily

identified.


Between 200,000 and 500,000 Gypsies were killed in the holocaust. In the camps, Gypsies

were forced to wear black triangular patches which classified them as "asocial” or green

triangles which identified them as professional criminals. They were used for medical

experiments before heading into the concentration or extermination camps. At

Sachsenhausen, they were subjected to special experiments that were supposed to prove

“scientifically” that their blood was different from German blood. The Romani often called

gypsies were usually blamed for things other groups did. For example looting (stealing) gold

teeth from the bodies of the dead Jews, other groups usually blamed the gypsies. Gypsy
women were usually the Germans “guinea pigs.” Many of these women were sterilized

because they “weren’t worthy” for human reproduction. At first Romani women that were

married to the Germans were not sent to camps but instead they were sterilized, as their

children had to be over the age of 12. Later these women and children were also sent to

camps, but it wasn’t just the Romani in Germany that had to worry about these things.

Gypsies from all over the world were being deported and sent to Auschwitz and places where

other camps took place. Tens of thousands of these humans died on the way to the camps

from starvation and diseases. In the trains they had no room to move, often people had to sit

or stand on one another. Those who died would often be sat on. If you fell asleep on the floor

chances were you weren’t going to wake up because someone suffocated you by sitting on

your face. You had to fight your way to survive.

The holocaust

  • 1. THE HOLOCAUST! http://www.ukemonde.com/holocaust/victims.html http://www.iearn.org/hgp/aeti/aeti-1997/roma-in-holocaust.html The Holocaust took place from January 30, 1933- May 8, 1945.

Regular criminals wore green, asocials, (slackers, prostitutes, procurers etc.). wore black, political prisoners wore red, Jewish wore yellow, homosexuals wore pink, and conscientious objectors wore purple to all be easily identified. Between 200,000 and 500,000 Gypsies were killed in the holocaust. In the camps, Gypsies were forced to wear black triangular patches which classified them as "asocial” or green triangles which identified them as professional criminals. They were used for medical experiments before heading into the concentration or extermination camps.
