...Nazi Death Camps Nazi Death Camps Arbeit Macht Frei Arbeit Macht Frei 2012 Joseph Frimpong Western Civilization 2 11/2/2012 2012 Joseph Frimpong Western Civilization 2 11/2/2012 Arbeit macht frei; when translated into English means labor makes you free. This was the first thing many Jews in the 1940’s saw as the banner above the gates of the place they’d likely die read. (Wachsmann) German soldiers fed Jews false hope, thinking that the harder they worked the closer freedom would be when in reality freedom could only come with death. The world changed forever when an estimated 20,946,000 people died due to the world war ignited by Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich. The Third Reich was the name for Nazi Germany under Hitler’s National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP) when it was a totalitarian state. Totalitarianism is a political system where the state holds total authority over the society and seeks to control all aspects of public and private life wherever necessary. (Dictionary) Soldiers were killed in battle, Civilians in cross fire, and by starvation but nothing compares to the systematic execution and elimination demonstrated by the Third Reich sponsored death camps. Before the organized concentration camps that are well known throughout the world to have killed a countless number of people there were camps built in the early 1930’s when the Nazi’s first came into power. Earlier camps were temporary and were set up to confine, interrogate, torture, and weaken...

...Concentration Camps The concentration camps were a major part in the second world war. Here in these camps millions died at the hands of Hitler’s ideology. These innocent people were put into camps without trial for the idea Hitler had of a “pure race’’. Origins of the Camps The first camps were originally set in Germany as detention centers for anyone who did not agree with Nazi agenda. These people were referred to as “enemies of the state” once the Nazis controlled Europe. This happened once Germans crossed Austria territory and the German Army invaded Poland. These camps were the first of the 20,000 used to cause so much death, loss, pain, and suffering (theholocaustexplained.org p?) . Notorious Camps Some of the most well known camps are such as Auschwitz, Belzec, Burgen-Belsen, Buchenwald, Chelmno, Dachau, and Dora Mittlebau. These camps were known for the death of millions of people. They were apart of the “Final Solution” program that was created for the destruction of the Jewish race. Prisoners’ Day...

...The Horrors of the concentrations camp is something unbelievable the crimes of the Nazi soldiers is unspeakable, they would kill, tormented and even fool around the lives of merciless people. The flesh of little children man or women burning besides each other and being able to withstand their flesh melting off their skin or even it being infuse with each other’s flesh is a crime beyond redemptions. They would force young children to adult at an early age or face the fiery cages of hell and make them work until exhaustion. The horrific devils would pile up babies the ages of 1-5 or even older and throw them into the gas chambers and face the agony of flames. Every Jewish person had to overcome this tragedy and were forced to endure the concentrations...

...At this moment Brynn forgot all about her date and asked her father, “How many people will there be in my class, what do I do when I get there, and how long is the flight to Wakiki?” “There is no class. You will have your own personal trainer who will be rooming with you, one other student, and another trainer. Once you arrive at the camp go to the main desk in the office and tell them your first and last name. No you cannot say Brynn, you have to go by your real first name at the camp. They will give you a schedule that you will go by every day. The flight from here to Wakiki is fifteen hours.” After he finished talking, Brice left the room to start making dinner. Brynn wasn’t so excited about the fifteen hour flight but she was pumped about getting the chance to go to a three month fighting camp...

The children are between the ages of 9 and 13, boys and girls. They were rescued from a refugee camp in Nigeria where conditions were very poor. People were cramped and slept in rudimentary shelters.

...The Boy in the Striped Pajamas Quiz Please write using complete sentence and use your own words for each answer. Be sure to check grammar and spelling. You may write on the quiz sheet, but it is recommended you use own paper for writing answers. 1. Why are Bruno (Asa Butterfield) and Shmuel (Jack) drawn to each other, despite their opposing circumstances? Bruno and Shmuel are drawn to each other simply because they are two kids of similar age that don’t have any friends where they reside. Despite their “political” differences, they were able to relate to one another by playing games and just getting a sense of each other’s daily lives and activities 2. Gretel (Amber Beattie) believes Father (David Thewlis) and his peers in their viewpoints on the persecution of Jews. Through Bruno is even younger than her, why does he question these viewpoints while Gretel does not? Gretel seems to believe in his Father’s viewpoints because she has the mindset of a realist. She backs up her views, along with the viewpoints of her father’s peers with the propaganda that she reads along with her professor’s teachings. Bruno, on the other hand, is more ignorant and naïve, which is very understandable for someone his age. His attitude towards the persecution of Jews is an unbiased one, and that the treatment that they receive is unjust and cruel. He doesn’t really grasp the magnitude of political differences that the Jews and Nazi’s have. 3. Contrast Father with Lieutenant Kotler...

...It seems like, that in “Indian Camp” by Hemingway, Nick and his father are doing a father and son trip. Nick’s father who is a doctor, seems plays a big role in this story. But actually Nick is kind of the main character. Uncle Gorge have asked the doctor to come to the Indian camp, where an Indian woman is very sick, she’s going to have a baby. On their way to the Indian Camp, nick is lying in the arms of his father, at the end of the boat. He is very near to his father, and seems to search love of this dad like a little boy. In that case I have to say that Nick is probably about 8-10 years old in this story. At the Indian camp, Nick’s father is trying to explain him what is going on in the little shanty. Nick act’s like he does understand that the woman is going to have a baby, and that it’s normal that she screams. But he clearly wants his father to make the woman stop screaming because he feels sorry for her. While the whole operation nick is standing in the Shanty watching most of the time his father doing his work. I think Nick is kind of scared what is going to happened. The fact that he looked away shows that he doesn’t liked what was going on, he felt bad by seeing another person suffer, but at the same time I think he maybe was a little proud too that his father can save this woman out of pain. After the operation things changed, we now know that uncle Gorge is most likely the father of the baby, and that the husband of the woman killed himself. Before the Doctor could...

...“No one can make you feel inferior without your consent” – Joe from “The Princess Diaries” (and Eleanor Roosevelt) I have been spending seven weeks at Camp Tevya each summer since the summer before eighth grade. My mom had gotten a job as the Head of Arts and Crafts, and she brought my sisters and me with her to camp. I have never been one of those people who are always loud and bouncing around with all seventy of their friends, so it was a bit of culture shock going to camp for the first time. Everybody was very outgoing and always surrounded by their friends. I had a very hard time fitting in and adapting to the overly extroverted environment. This was doubly hard for me as a camper because I was forced to spend my entire day with the same 21 girls, all of whom had already been friends for at least three years....

...Putting Thoughts to Paper For several years in school, I dreaded writing academic papers because I found many of the topics monotonous, provoking little desire in me to work hard. The writing process intimidated me because I was often unaware as to where I should begin a paper and once I did, how I should develop my thoughts in an effective manner. My appreciation of writing, both academically and artistically, did not surface until my sophomore year in high school. When I transferred from public to private school, I realized that my writing skills were not as strongly developed as many of my fellow classmates. This feeling of inadequacy motivated me to seek help from my teachers and peers. By the end of first semester sophomore year, my...
