The Nazis will treat the Jews as if they were not real people this is an example of man inhumanity to man. The memoir Night by Elie Wiesel had many themes some were struggle to maintain faith, Nazi cruelty and man's inhumanity to man.

One...Two…, he counted.” (Weisel 65), which shows us how the Nazi’s would beat the Jewish people within the concentration camps. During the time that Elie was in Buna, Idek made Elie lie stomach down on a box and he whipped Elie and gave him 25 lashes. This was very cruel in that Idek punished Elie for knowing something that he knew about, but should not have
Out of the two world wars, World War II is known to be the bloodiest and brutal war. The main reason this is to believed is because to the Holocaust. The Holocaust was the time period where many were persecuted for their beliefs and race. Hitler is who is to blame for the Holocaust, he is the one who organized all the horrific things done to the people who did not fall under his Master Race. Despite the many theories about the purpose of the Holocaust, the real purpose make those who weren’t members of the Master Race fear the Nazi Regime, to force them to obey the Nazi’s without question.
The Holocaust was a persecution and eventual mass murder of Jews during the Nazi regime in the World War II. An estimate of six million Jews were killed, all because of their religion and beliefs. The Nazi thought they were the superior race, and Jews were “inferior” as well as a danger to the ‘perfect’ German community. Gradually, the German government was filled with people who believed that Jews needed to be purged. They began to pass laws that specifically targeted Jews, such as making all Jews wear a big yellow star to identify themselves, as well as forbidding Jews from riding bikes.

Jack Serra Mrs. Breig English 9H 25 March 2017 The Atrocities of Life Inside a Concentration Camp On January 30th of 1933, the Chancellor and Fuhrer of Germany Adolf Hitler commenced mass genocide against the Jewish people. Following WWI, Hitler aimed to eradicate the Jews from Germany. Jewish people were herded into large concentration camps run by Hitler’s Army known as the Nazis. These concentration camps were basically death camps.
Some of them were sent to mental hospitals or concentration camps like in Nazi Germany. “Auschwitz begins wherever someone looks at a slaughterhouse and thinks: they’re only animals. ”(Theodor Adorno) The court would even make homosexual men castrated for one of the other consequences of being a homosexual person in the community. Homosexuals weren’t welcomed back to their homes in the aftermath of war for the “shame” they brought on their family's reputation. Hitler's race is the one who gave the idea of them as monsters.
Even though the camps are already terrible, the sight and thought of fire makes the prisoners seem more vulnerable to death. This is shown in the book when Elie thought that he was going to die by the
“A major priority of the Nazi Party was to eliminate racially inferior groups in Germany and across Europe. Discuss how and why they did this” The Nazi part prosecuted many racial and social groups during their reign from 1933-1945. The Nazi party followed their beliefs that there was a superior race called the Aryan race and used Charles Darwin’s theory of Social Darwinism to prosecute these groups. In this essay I will discuss the prosecution of the Jewish people, the homosexuals and the gypsies (Roma) and how and why they did this.
The Holocaust was a genocide in Germany of all European Jews and ‘undesirables’, led by Adolf Hitler; he managed to kill 6 million jews using concentration camps and systematic killing. In the concentration camps, the Jews were forced to do labour work in factories to manufacture goods for the war; conditions were terrible, as Jewish individuals were not treated well physically and psychologically. Previous knowledge and impressions of mine, regarding the Holocaust, came from classroom discussions, reading textbooks, and by doing assignments. Therefore, the film depicted how truly horrific the Holocaust was, as it ruined the lives of innocent individuals, due to a factor of their lives which they could not control; can not decide to be Jewish,
Soon after Hitler became dictator of Germany, the “Gestapo, a German secret police force, as created…” (Gestapo). Communism was thought to be trying to take over Nazism and it was Hitler’s main goal to eliminate his political enemies. “The Gestapo was created to help solidify control by identifying and arresting anti-Nazis agents in Germany” (Gestapo). Hitler appointed another one of his senior Nazi official as head of the Gestapo. “Hermann Göring was appointed director of the German Gestapo” (Gestapo).
In the year of 1933, the Holocaust began and many Jews were scared and worried that they would be found, and sent off to be killed by the Nazis. Nearly 2,500 Jews were transported to an extermination camp known as, Treblinka. Treblinka was occupied in Poland, and it was established in 1941. In Treblinka, their gas house had the Star of David on the front wall. Before the Jews were killed they would have to listen to an SS officer* that would tell them that they arrived at a transit camp.
A Day in a Nazi Concentration Camp Soon after Adolf Hitler’s appointment to chancellor in 1933, the construction of concentration camps began in Germany (“Introduction to the Holocaust”). The Nazis then began to build detention facilities to house those who they believed were lesser than them, such as Jews, homosexuals, Socialists, and Gypsies (“Concentration Camps”). Dachau was the first concentration camp set up by the Nazies. Twenty two main concentration camps had been built by the end of World War II along with 1,200 affiliate camps (“Nazi Camps”). Arrival at concentration camps was brutal.
The Holocaust was one of the worst examples of genocide that has occurred in the world and throughout history. Millions of people died during the Holocaust, including Jews and gypsies as well as homosexuals and those with mental illnesses. When people think of or remember the Holocaust, they typically relate it to concentration camps. The camps were used to house and execute prisoners and also perform hard manual labor. Every aspect of daily life in the camps was horrific as the conditions were brutal, both mentally and physically.
The Holocaust was the worst thing that could've ever happened to history. The discrimination, the murders, the concentration camps, the gas chambers, and worst of all, the group that did it all, the Gestapo. The gestapo was a secret police force that followed orders from Hitler and the Nazis. When the gestapo was first established, on April 27, 1933, it was only in the Nazi state but over time it went all over Germany and Poland. The Gestapo was the group that carried out the Nazi’s “Final Solution”.
