The Holocaust

Each reading group in our class is going to add to the blog as we explore the cause of the Holocaust. They will be asked to explain where they are in their thinking and some of their reasons.

Today's group is Kabuki.

Today we are learning about the Holocaust. Hitler copied the so called 'Master race' from Friedrich Nietzsche, who first suggested the idea.
If you are thinking about what caused the Holocaust? Nothing actually caused the Holocaust, it was a deliberate policy by the German government, personally conceived by order of Adolf Hitler. Hitler believed that the Jewish people were vermin, therefore they were a threat to superior humans [Germans].

The Nazis wanted to annihilate the entire the European Jewish community.

I think that what happened back then was wrong and disgusting and should never have happened. Even though Hitler believed this and he thought he was right, he was not. Hitler used propaganda even before he was in power and he was successful. He made people think his way.

I think that what happened back during the Holocaust was wrong and Hitler should of been good instead of bad.

I think Hitler used really good propaganda to influence the people to make them think his way, but this is wrong because he is lying to get his own way.

I think what Hitler did to these people was wrong because those people did nothing wrong to him.

This was put together by a reading group as their task to demonstrate their understanding so far.
