The Holocaust was the systematic persecution and murder of approximately six million Jews by the Nazi regime and its collaborators between 1933-1945. The Nazis believed Jews were racially inferior and a threat to Germany. Jews were killed through mass shootings, gassing in extermination camps like Auschwitz where over 1 million Jews were killed, starvation, disease, and medical experiments. Elie Wiesel, who wrote the memoir Night about his experiences in Auschwitz, was one of the few survivors from his hometown in Transylvania.
David Olère was an artist who survived Auschwitz and used his artwork to document the atrocities of the Holocaust. As a prisoner at Auschwitz, he worked as part of a labor unit responsible for disposing of victims in the gas chambers and crematoriums. After liberation, he felt compelled to use his art to testify to what really happened in the camps. His drawings, paintings and sculptures provide invaluable first-hand accounts of the horrors in a place where no photographs were allowed. Olère sought to honor the victims and ensure the truth about the Holocaust would be remembered.
The Holocaust was a genocide carried out by Nazi Germany against European Jews between 1933-1945. An estimated 6 million Jews were murdered, along with 5 million others including Roma, Slavs, homosexuals and political opponents. Jews were systematically persecuted through legislation and violence, culminating in extermination camps where most were gassed. While resistance occurred, most victims were unable to escape the well-organized Nazi killing machine before Allied liberation in 1945.

The document provides details about the Holocaust and Hitler's systematic genocide of Jewish people during World War 2. It describes how Hitler stripped Jews of their rights and labeled them as scapegoats. The Nazis then forced Jews into overcrowded ghettos and concentration camps where many died from starvation, disease, overwork or medical experiments. Eventually, Hitler's "Final Solution" was implemented which involved transporting Jews to six death camps, most notably Auschwitz, where they were gassed in chambers or killed through other means. In total, the Holocaust led to the murder of approximately 11 million people across Europe, half of whom were Jewish.
The document describes several Nazi death camps established during the Holocaust to systematically exterminate people deemed inferior by the Nazi regime.

The Nazis targeted Jews in particular but also Roma people, Slavs, political opponents and others in their genocidal campaign.
The holocaust refers to the systematic extermination of approximately 6 million European Jews by Nazi Germany and its allies between 1941-1945. Key events included the rise of anti-Semitism in Germany after World War 1, the Nazi persecution of Jews beginning in 1933 with boycotts of Jewish businesses, and the mass killing of Jews in camps like Auschwitz beginning in 1941 as part of Hitler's "Final Solution" to eliminate the Jewish people. Millions of Jews were deported from across occupied Europe to ghettos and extermination camps where most were gassed to death or perished from starvation, disease, and forced labor. The holocaust stands as one of the worst crimes against humanity in modern history.
Concentration camps were camps built by Nazi Germany to imprison and persecute millions of people. The camps varied in their uses, with some serving as forced labor camps, others as killing centers where over a million people were murdered through gas chambers, medical experiments, starvation, disease and overwork. The largest camp was Auschwitz, where about 1.1 million people were killed, while others like Dachau, Buchenwald and Bergen-Belsen held tens of thousands of prisoners in inhumane conditions.
The Kovno ghetto was established in Lithuania in 1941, initially housing around 29,000 Jews who had been relocated from the city of Kovno and surrounding areas. Conditions in the overcrowded ghetto rapidly deteriorated due to starvation, disease, and mass killings. In an effort to document Nazi atrocities and resist where possible, the Jewish council organized schools, religious services, and cultural programs. They also formed an underground resistance movement. As the ghetto was liquidated between 1943-1944, most inhabitants were deported to concentration camps or killed. By the end of the Holocaust, approximately 500 Jews from Kovno had survived, out of an original population of 35,000-40,000.
Oskar Schindler was a German businessman from Czechoslovakia who saved over 1,000 Jews during the Holocaust by employing them in his factories. He was initially an opportunist who was not very politically motivated, but he had connections that allowed him to get arrested Nazis off the hook multiple times. After witnessing Nazi atrocities, he had a change of heart and went to great lengths to protect the Jews working for him, providing them with extra food, medicine, and allowing religious observance. After the war he struggled financially and lived in obscurity, but was celebrated by the Jews he saved and buried in Israel.
Heinrich Himmler was the creator of the "Final Solution to the Jewish Problem". The first concentration camps in Germany were built in 1933, initially to detain political opponents.

The most notorious camp was Auschwitz-Birkenau, where over 1 million people were killed, most of them Jews. Prisoners faced brutal treatment, human medical experimentation, starvation, and punishments. Allies were informed of the atrocities but did not take action until late in the war. After the war, some attempted to deny or shift responsibility for the concentration camps.

Poland has a long and storied history spanning over 1000 years. Some key points in Poland's history include being ruled by kings from the Piast dynasty for over 1000 years, forming the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth union in 1569 which made it one of the largest states in Europe, and experiencing partitions in the late 18th century by neighboring powers that eliminated Poland from the map for over a century. Poland regained independence after World War I but was occupied again during World War II by Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union.

This document summarizes the life and death of Anne Frank during the Holocaust. It describes how she and her family went into hiding in 1942 in Amsterdam to escape Nazi persecution of Jews. However, in 1944 they were betrayed and arrested. Anne and her sister Margot were sent to the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in Germany, where they both died in March 1945 shortly before the camp was liberated. After the war, Anne's diary was published and became famous worldwide.
This document provides details about the liberation of Nazi concentration camps at the end of World War II. It describes the horrific conditions found at Buchenwald and Ohrdruf concentration camps, including thousands of emaciated corpses and barely living prisoners. High-ranking American generals including Eisenhower, Patton, and Bradley visited Ohrdruf and were deeply disturbed by what they saw, with Patton vomiting in response. Eisenhower realized it was crucial for soldiers and the world to understand the atrocities being committed in the camps.
This document summarizes the key facts and arguments about the Holocaust and mass killings in Europe during the 1930s and 1940s. It argues that the Holocaust was centered in Poland and the Soviet Union, where the majority of Jewish victims lived, rather than Auschwitz. It also notes that Nazi Germany carried out mass killings of non-Jewish Slavic populations and that Stalin's Soviet Union deliberately starved and executed millions of civilians, with Belarus, Ukraine, Poland and the Baltic states experiencing the highest death tolls from both regimes' policies of mass killing.
Holocaust in Poland. During the II World War, jewish and non-jewish residents of Poland have suffered from Hitler Germany's ruthless policy. In particular, Hitler was aiming to kill every single jew in the world. Jews predominantly were living in Poland, Germany constructed extremination and concentration camps, as well as ghettos within the territory of Poland, in order to ruin them very quickly.

1. The Holocaust began in 1936 in Germany and lasted until 1945. Adolf Hitler rose to power as the leader of Germany's Nazi party in 1933 and instituted racist laws targeting Jews.
2. The Nazi regime created ghettos and concentration camps, where they imprisoned and starved Jewish people. They also conducted medical experiments on prisoners.
3. Over six million Jewish people were murdered in the Holocaust through mass executions, starvation, and gas chambers at concentration camps like Auschwitz. Allied forces liberated camps in 1945 and discovered the horrific atrocities.
The Holocaust was the systematic persecution and murder of approximately six million Jews by the Nazi regime between 1933-1945. The Nazis believed Germans were racially superior and targeted Jews, Roma, Slavs, disabled people, and others they deemed racially inferior for persecution and genocide. Over two-thirds of Europe's Jewish population was murdered as part of the Nazis' "Final Solution." In addition to Jews, the Nazis also murdered over 200,000 Roma people, 200,000 disabled patients, and over one million children.

The document provides historical context and details about the prelude and progression of the Holocaust. It summarizes that the Holocaust was a state-sponsored persecution of European Jews by Nazi Germany between 1933-1945 that resulted in the murders of 6 million Jews. It then details how the Nazis passed increasingly restrictive laws and policies that systematically stripped Jews of their rights and property and dehumanized them through propaganda to pave the way for their eventual mass extermination in death camps.
The document summarizes the treatment and identification of various non-Jewish victim groups in Nazi Germany, including Poles, Gypsies, political enemies, Jehovah's Witnesses, homosexuals, and people with disabilities. Each group was forced to wear colored patches identifying them and faced persecution, imprisonment, medical experimentation, or death in concentration camps at the hands of the Nazis.
The document summarizes the persecution and genocide of Jews in Europe during the Holocaust. It describes how Jews had faced deep prejudice for centuries and were increasingly targeted in the early 20th century. The rise of Hitler and the Nazis led to the systematic oppression of Jews, stripping of their rights, and confinement to ghettos. The Nazis then implemented the "Final Solution" through concentration camps and death camps, where millions of Jews were executed through mass shootings, gas vans, and gas chambers. By the end, around 6 million Jewish people had been murdered by the Nazi regime during the Holocaust.
Commemoration Assumes that the Past is not CompleteNeverAgainIsNow
Jewish Dutch author Arnon Grunberg gave an unbelievably beautiful and important speech on May 4th in commemoration of the victims of WWII at the Dutch National Commemoration of War Victims. This is an English translation of that lecture.
A man walked into a house and was about to hang up his coat when he heard his wife say "No John! Don't do it!" followed by a gunshot. The wife was found dead by the police officer, doctor, and lawyer standing next to her body. The husband knew the police officer was the one who killed the wife, but how did he know without witnessing the shooting?

5. Mother, postpone the birth ofYour Son,
some other time’s best,
Let not the eyes of Creation look on
how we’re oppressed.
ElsewhereYour Son should with all due gladness
be given birth,
not now, not here, not in this saddest

For in this city, whichYou’d remember
from the old days,
crosses grow, crosses, graveyards and embers
with fresh blood bathed.
Our children under shrapnel and bullet
lie dead and dumb.

but do not come.

inWarsaw’s dross,
best then ifYou Him straight after birth
throw on the Cross.Stanisław Baliński (1899–1984)
