How Could so many individuals/governments allow the Holocaust to happen? Why were there bystanders?
The three objectives we plan to address:
1. Compare and contrast different perspectives about how the U.S should respond to aggressive policies and actions taken by other nations at this time.
2. Assess the responses of the U.S and other nations to the violation of human rights that occurred during the Holocaust and other genocides.
3. Compare the varying perspectives of victims, survivors, bystanders, rescuers, and perpetrators during the Holocaust.
Product Ideas
Prezi
Poster
Video
Primary Sources we plan to use:
Survivor testimonies
Speeches from government officers
Articles describing the situation
By last class we were able to agree that the best way to portray our project would be in a Prezi. We also were able to find some information on what were American reason for not helping during the Holocaust. We still have to find more information for our project and hopefully we would have that done for next class.
I'm doing the last two objectives as well! Our idea was also to use survival testimonies. I found a site about some personal accounts about those in Auschwitz that I found helpful, so maybe you could use it too. :)
