The Holocaust: In Memory of Millions I have always known the holocaust to be one of the worst events in all of history. I remember learning all about it in history class in the ninth grade and being appalled by all the horrors that were shown to us. We learned all about the intense persecution of the Jews, how they were forced into terrible concentration camps where they either worked or were killed, and how the Germans just walked around beating on them and destroying every part of their lives. I was already fairly clued in to the horrors of the holocaust, but this movie opened a few doors for me. For instance, I was well aware of the persecution of the Jews, however I had no idea that gypsies, Jahovah Witness', homosexuals, and the handicapped were also persecuted so fiercely. This video taught me more about the Jewish ghettos, and how the Germans didn't want to walk through them because they didn't want to get dirty, so they built glass tunnels going right through the middle of them.My new discoveries about the holocaust have upset me even more then before. I can't believe this terrible event actually occurred. Whenever I think about the holocaust my emotions take control of me and I cry all night long. Although, I have to hand it to Hitler, it amazes me that one man can cause such havoc and have all these people follow him and do such terrible things in his name. It riles my brain to think about what kind of man Hitler was, and how he could do such a thing as genocide....
