Labels In The Holocaust

Identity of oneself is different than the identity that other may see. I wish to see in the hope near future that labels are not used for means of discrimination but as a way of to accept the different types of people. What need to happen to accomplish this is acception. We need to acknowledge the facts. No need for pointing fingers at each other when no action is being done.

People are categorized into certain groups regarding races, ethnicities, and religion because it’s easier. Some individuals base their treatment of others because they think of themselves being superior. Prejudice results in terrorism, racism, and genocide throughout the globe. In addition, women are treated unfairly compared to men. For example, Malala Yousafzai was wanted as a criminal for trying to give girls an education.

Eliminating these lethal aggressions begins with remedying unconstructive interactions consisting of detrimental symbolic labels. Educating students, teachers, parents, and others that “different” is not the equivalent of “bad” would aid in reevaluating commonly shared labels and

In our world, people who are born different from other people are almost always treated differently from those who are “normal”. Nearly every person that is treated differently is treated in a more negative way than they would be if they fit in with other people. This is a terrible and insensible trend that has caused years of suffering throughout human history. Because of unimportant and miniscule discrepancies, such as race, we have decided to put up walls between cultures and make ourselves narrow-minded and un-open to new ideas. The reality that discrimination is universal has lead to discrimination becoming a popular theme in literature and other forms of entertainment.

Nonetheless, to resolve the racism, sexism and ignorance derived from it, people need to realize we are all human beings. We need to acknowledge that inconsistencies in our belief pose a dangerous threat. We must figure out who or what decided only certain people receive the benefit of the doubt while others suffer. We must hold those people accountable for their actions, they need to know privileges do not only apply to one group of people, it applies to all. Most importantly, we need to realize for all the time people have been on earth, the only consistency we managed is figuring out new ways to harm other people, from bows and arrows to atomic bombs.

Labels are used every day by everyone sometimes they are used without even knowing it. Author Evan Hunter shows the importance of self-identification and the use of labels in the short story “On The Sidewalk Bleeding” Andy went out to get some cigarettes while wearing his bright purple jacket with lettering across the back that read the royals. While on his way he was stabbed by a member of a competing gang. While he is laying there bleeding a drunk man comes over to him and thinks that andy is as drunk as he is so he does Andy a “favour” by not calling the cops. Later a couple sees him lying there but are too scared to help him because he was wearing the royals jacket and were afraid of the other gangs.

Discrimination is the treatment of a person or particular group of people differently, in a way that is worse than the way people are usually treated. The United States, ever since it was founded, has been plagued with discrimination. In the U.S. racism and sexism seem to be the most prevalent discriminatory problems. However, these two types of discrimination have been greatly reduced, and could be almost non-existent, but people are still benefiting from being “unequal” so the problem sticks around. Protests and other types of unrest have brought the problem to the media’s attention and many people have observed that the problems are being fought with a tougher form of themselves.

Discrimination When people think of discrimination, the Holocaust comes to mind, but there are many more examples and ways of discriminating against others. This issue has been going on for centuries, and it is still a problem in today’s world. Discrimination is the isolating of others because of race, intelligence, and/or religion.

Conformity and group mentality are major aspects of social influence that have governed some of the most notorious events and experiments in history. The Holocaust is a shocking example of group mentality, or groupthink, which states that all members of the group must support the group’s decisions strongly, and all evidence leading to the contrary must be ignored. Social norms are an example of conformity on a smaller scale, such as tipping your waiter or waitress, saying please and thank you, and getting a job and becoming a productive member of society. Our society hinges on an individual’s inherent need to belong and focuses on manipulating that need in order to create compliant members of society by using the ‘majority rules’ concept. This

The Holocaust is the deadliest recognized genocide in human history. It lasted from January 30,1933 – May 8,1945 and would result in the l1 million deaths. The causes of the Holocaust begin at the end of World War One with what Germans referred to as “the stab in the back”. This was a myth that claimed the German Army did not loose World War One but was betrayed by the Jewish population who gave up land and supplies to the Allies. As this spread anti-Semitism or hate for Jewish people grew in Germany as people viewed the Jewish population as deceptive and traitorous. As the Nazi party rose to power with their psychopathic leader, Adolf Hitler, at the helm they made it very clear that Jewish people were a threat to the German future and must therefore be exterminated.

labeling people has gone on for a long time and it happens everywhere at home,church,school and work. labeling affects a lot of people in good and bad ways. when people are labeled it makes them feel like they can’t do certain things because of their label, or make them feel like they have to do certain things because they want to keep their reputation on their name, making them feel like they are in a box. labeling people can also be racist. Harper Lee shows examples of labeling in the novel to kill a mockingbird.

“Those who kept silent yesterday will remain silent tomorrow”. That was what Elie Wiesel said in the original yiddish version of his book Night. Society creates labels for everyone and everything. If people go against the society will be hostile. The hostility of society has made people not speak up when they see something wrong.

Discrimination is a big problem, and people get treated differently because of their race, religion, ethnicity and much

Losing labels that we put on others is also a problem with stereotyping in our society that we can easily fix and stop. The media is one of the hugest influences on stereotyping now in our society so if the media showed more positive and a more true impressions of the different demographics like religions,race, and sex people wouldn 't have a certain perception of others.
