What is the Holocaust?
Why Jews?
Jews were targeted in the Holocaust because Hitler blamed them for all the problems of the world. Like Germanys loss in
World War II. Hitler told the Germans that they could have won if it wasn't for the Jews “stabbing” them in the back.
Concentration Camps
Concentration Camps are a small place for
large amounts of people (Jews) for forced labor.
That the nazis would run.
Girl Jews
Most of the girl jews before they died were
forced to take all of their clothing off and lay down on the ground and all the
nazis would rape everyone of them.
Jewish Star
The jews would have to put this star on all of their
clothing to indicate that they are a jew.
Clothing
When the jews got caught they would have a certain amount of time to collect some of their belongings and
bring it with them. But whatever they took with them would be taken away from them. Either stolen by other jews or by the Nazis.
Tattoo
When the jews got sent to the concentration camps they got tattoos of a number so people would know
that they are a jew and where they belong. the concentration camps had lists of all the jews in that camp and they would make sure all of Jews they
captured were still there.
Transportation
When the jews got caught they would get thrown into a train cart with about 20 people also in that same cart.
Hunger
The jews would only get to eat on certain times. Sometimes they didn't eat at all. They would go days, weeks, or months without food at a time.
Outfits
Jews would sometimes have an outfit to wear. and that was the only clothing they got. and
it was all the same.
Hard Labor
Jews would constantly be working/moving. They only got a break once a day, to go to bed. But they were up early the
next morning.
Sleeping
For sleeping jews would get bunks like this. Or they
would have to sleep on the floor. Depending on what concentration camp they
were at.
When and how did the holocaust end?
The Holocaust ended a little while after Hitler committed
suicide in April 1945. Tons of Natizs committed suicide
because the didn't want to get caught and punished for their part in the Holocaust.
And from most of the Natizs committing suicide and the others getting caught the
Holocaust ended.
