Going to the Holocaust Memorial Museum and learning about the Holocaust and Armenian Genocide really struck me. I didn’t expect us to get into such a deep and emotional topic this year, but I’m glad we did. Before learning about these events, I only knew a little bit about Hitler and Swastikas, but as we went through this unit, I realized how horrific this was. I think it’s very important for students to be taught about this in school, so an event like this won’t ever have to happen again. After learning about this topic, I feel I should address all the small issues and problems so that later, they won’t become huge problems. The Holocaust unit is one of the only humanities topics that will stick with me forever.
