AOW Holocaust Impressions

One thing I learned form the Article Of The Week Gallery Walk is that many people are trying to prevent another Holocaust kind of event from happening. One of the articles I read was about a man who was a Holocaust survivor. This man spends his days going to schools and informing children about the true horrors of the Holocaust. When he speaks to schools he recalls how he watched his family die. A lesson that he teaches is the importance of not being a bystander whenever you see unjust acts taking place.

Another thing I learned from the Gallery Walk is that not all victims of the Holocaust hate Hitler for what he did. One man who is a Holocaust survivor is also a teacher. This eighty-six year old man has been educating for twenty-five years. He educates people about the true events of the Holocaust but also teaches non-hate. The man doesn't believe in hating Adolf Hitler for what he did and doesn't hold any blame against him. He believes that despite the events that happened that he should hold anything against Hitler.
