Irena Sendler's Life During The Holocaust

When he was younger his mom would feed poor strangers the same amount of food as they got, and she split it all equally (Giddens). There were 9.5 million Jews that lived in Europe at the time before the Holocaust (Burk). The places that had the most Jews in their population were Poland, Romania, Latvia, and Estonia (Burk). The Nazis seized power in 1933, and the majority of European Jews two out of every three would be dead after the Holocaust

After Corrie Ten Boom was released, she went back to the concentration camp and forgave the men who did the horrible things to her. Even though Corrie Ten Boom was sent to a concentration camp along with many others, she was arguably the most important woman in World War ll. She saved thousands of lives and brought many to the Lord. Cornelia Arnolda Johanna Ten Boom was born in Amsterdam Netherlands on April 15, 1892. She lived in in a watch shop that she and her family inherited before her first birthday.

She would yell derogatory words, like “You’re nothing, nobody”(73), and that she was a “stupid girl”(26). Working day and night, she slaved away to every need or want that “The Mom” or “The Dad” sent her way. This continued until the morning of April 9, 2002, when Shyima was rescued at the age of 12, 6 months away from turning 13. It took time for her to trust the police and men in general, but eventually with the help of patience and understanding people like Mark, she began to

The successes of the revolt were that many people escaped and that the Nazis were beaten. This would leave a mark in history. The challenges of the revolt were that they had keep the plan a secret until the last moment, they had to lure the officers into a trap without them suspecting anything, and out of the 300 people that escaped, only about 50 survived. Those 50 people had to avoid getting shot at, getting blown up by a mine, or getting killed in the forest. They went through a lot of challenges and risked their lives to make this plan work.

They risked their lives leaving home to work in the cesspools of infection. They lived separately from the soldiers and only made $12 a month. While many women are nurses today, their service in the war began their integration into the work force over the next 100 years. But in medicine, women nurses soon became commonplace. George Wunderlich, executive director of the National Museum of Civil War Medicine, called the conflict, “a watershed that really changed all medicine to the point where it could never completely go back to the way it was before.

Stefania came from a well known Catholic family that served the community, and so, when it came to do what she did i’m sure it wasn’t in her mind out of the ordinary/or heroism. She spent most of her younger days just helping out in the community, and being an average kid. “Stefania had to move to a nearby two-bedroom cottage to accommodate them all there were eventually 13 Jews concealed with Podgorska.” (ListVerse #8) With the help of a family friend that had jumped out of a train car they helped keep all 13 Jews healthy, Joe (the family friend) built a false wall in the room, and that is were Podgorska took care of everyone. Good deeds in life happen for a reason, and I believe this event happened because her God knew she would

Ann continues to tell her story to the world hoping that she will raise awareness to the future generations about the hidden enemy that can strike at any time, hatred. Throughout her speech, Ann recalls the oppression, fear, and despair that she felt during the most unjust and unjustified crime in the human history. At first, oppression was a major factor that prevented Jews from trying to save their lives. Given the small number of inhabitants in the village where Ann was located building a ghetto was not necessary. A verbal warning was enough from the Nazis to erase any thought of escaping to save

Historians have been debating how the spirit triumphed during the Holocaust for years. The spirit triumphed through the Holocaust through many, many distractions, nature, and the support and love of family and friends. The Nazis had killed, and enslaved so many Jewish people in concentration camps. But, the Nazis couldn’t take their spirit from them. Even though the Holocaust had so many deaths, there were also so much love, and so many good people.

Holocaust Rescues The Holocaust was a tragic event that caused the death of many individuals. Most Jews in the Holocaust couldn’t survive by themselves without being captured and that’s where rescuers come in. Rescuers during the Holocaust took in Jews, giving them a hiding place, food, and shelter, kept someone being a Jew a secret, or just hid someone’s star of David to save them from the authority. Even though rescuing a Jew in the Holocaust risked the Jew’s life, the rescuer’s life, and the rescuer’s family’s life, many continued to save lives of the Jews. It took courage to risk your own life for the life of another, but some felt it was the right thing to do even with the punishments.

In the fall of 1851, she took 11 African American fugitives from Dorchester, Md. and helped them get to Canada West or Ontario(Doc B). This is important but it is not the most important thing that she did as it did not help as many people. Harriet Tubman's second greatest achievement is being a nurse during the civil war. ¨Well, missus, I´d go the hospital, I would, every morning.

Who could have thought that the victims were most responsible for the Holocaust? After all, they were the targets of this abominable act; 6 million Jews, 9-18 million Soviets, 1.8 million Poles, and more groups with fewer casualties. This book, Night, is a memoir about a Jewish prisoner that goes by the name of Elie Wisel that survived this ordeal. After all, they had many opportunities to escape, repeal, or act. The people who chose not to do anything till it was too late are responsible for the Holocaust.
