Holocaust AOW Impressions
This weeks AOWs were all somewhat current vents related to the Holocaust. Several articles were about survivors sharing their stories and experiences with schools and students. Those survivors teach about how hatred guided the whole war. Other articles were about survivors getting revenge from the war. A group of fourteen Holocaust survivors sued the Hungarian government for working with Hitler and the Nazis in WWII.
Throughout most of the articles a lot of them had the same theme; history repeats itself. My article also had this theme. These articles were survivors speaking about how similar current events are to WWII events. Most of them talked about the Syrian refugees. They were saying if countries don't let in the refugees because of fear of terrorism and other issues, it is disturbingly similar to countries during WWII refusing to let Jewish refugees in. They are noticing some events like these are repeating themselves/ The survivors are trying to remind the public about the horrifying events during WWII, so they hopefully won't repeat themselves in current situations.
