Holocaust HW



WHO
- Who were the victims of the Holocaust?
- Who were the members of the "master race"?

WHAT
- What were the Nuremberg Laws?
- What happened on the night of 11/9/38?
- What was Hitler's "Final Solution"?

WHERE
- Where did German Jews try to migrate to find safety from Nazi terror?
- Where were Jews forced to live in German controlled cities? 
- Where were the concentration camps? 

WHY? 
 - Why did Hitler believe that Jews and other"subhumans" had to be exterminated? 

WHEN
 - When did the final stage of the "final solution" begin?

HOW
 - How many Jews died in the Holocaust? 
 - How does the poem (below) express the importance of compassion for your fellow man in the face of danger/prejudice? 



they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

 Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew.

 Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
