During the time that we were studying the Holocaust and the Armenian Genocide we have learned many different things including the true horror of what really happened. I would say the part that really showed me what really happened what the documentary of One Survivor Remembers. This is told by a survivor of the Holocaust which is definitely a source that truly knows what happened. Also the movie of Life is Beautiful really moved me. Even though this is fiction it still has some parts that are true. Also there could have been a family that was split up and it was a very sad story. The first time I watched it it did bring me to tears and I would be very surprised if it didn’t bring the first timers to tears as well. After Reading Night by Elie Wiesel, and hearing his story and what pain he went through, it has really made me more educated and made me think that how could anybody put a kid through losing his family, making him lose his faith, and walk in the freezing cold with about nothing out. This proves that there are some very strong people in life because if I heard this from someone else I wouldn’t believe them. These things also change my view on humanity. For example how could anybody put someone, no matter what age, through what the jews went through during the Holocaust. We are all human and we should all be treated the same no matter what race religion or sexuality you are.
