The rebirth of Germany after the holocaust

The Holocaust had a deep effect on society in both Europe and the rest of the world. Its impact has been felt in theological discussions, artistic and cultural pursuits, and political decisions. The after effects are still evident today in children and adults whose ancestors faced this horrible scene.

After Liberation, many Jewish survivors feared to return to their former homes because of the antisemitism (hatred of Jews) that persisted in parts of Europe and the trauma they had suffered. Some who returned home feared for their lives. In postwar Poland, for example, there were a number of pogroms (violent anti-Jewish riots). The largest of these occurred in the town of Kielce in 1946 when Polish rioters killed at least 42 Jews and beat many others.

But even whit one of the most disasters of the human history now Germany make the country one of the best country in Europe and in the whole world 

  

An acceptance speech for the Nobel Peace Prize 

By: Elie Wiesel

No one may speak for the dead.

No one may interpret their mutilated  dreams and visions

It pleases me because I may say that this honor belongs to all the survivors and their children, and through us to the Jewish people with whose destiny I always identify.

Of course since I'm a Jew profoundly rooted in my peoples memory and tradition my first response is to Jewish fears, Jewish needs, Jewish cries. For I belong to a traumatized generation one that I experienced the abandonment and solicitude of our people.

This is the way I tell the young Jewish boy wondering what I have done with this years.

It is his name that I speak to you and that I express to you my deepest gratitude.

Anne Frank Diary Entries

On her thirteenth birthday, Anne Frank’s parents give her a diary. She was excited because she wanted someone or something in which to confide all of her secret thoughts. Even though she has a rich social life, she felled misunderstood by everyone she knows. Anne starts writing about daily events, her thoughts, school grades, boys, all that.

But, within a month, her entire life changes.

As Jews in German-occupied Holland, the Frank family fears for their lives. When Anne’s sister, Margot, is called to appear before the authorities which would almost surely mean she was being sent to a concentration camp Anne and her family go into hiding. They move into a little section of Anne's father's office building that is walled off and hidden behind a swinging bookcase. The little diagram of the office building and "Secret Annex" in the Thursday, July 9, 1942 entry gives us the layout.

What was the Holocaust?

Soon after the WW1 ended, Hitler joined the National German Workers’ Party, which became the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (NSDAP), known to English speakers as the Nazis.

In 1934, Hitler anointed himself as “Fuhrer,” becoming Germany’s supreme ruler.

the concentration camp where a place where large numbers of people, especially political prisoners or members of persecuted minorities, are deliberately imprisoned in a relatively small area with inadequate facilities, sometimes to provide forced labor or to await mass execution,

The term "ghetto" comes from the name of      the Jewish quarter of Venice, established in 1516. During World War II, the ghettos were urban districts (often closed) in which the Germans forced the Jewish population to live in miserable conditions. The ghettos isolated the Jews, separating them from the non-Jewish population as well as from the other Jewish        communities. The Nazis created more than 400 ghettos.
