FILm Lesson: "Schindler's List"

The movie" Schindler's List" was a good movie. It showed us the way the poor Jews were treated by the Nazi. It was unbelievable how people could treat others the way the Nazi treated the Jews. the move showed us what happened from before the Jews were sent to the Ghettos and how they killed them. the scenes that i remember was when the Nazis came out of nowhere and simply took the Jews to the camps. also the adorable little girl with the pink coat that went into the house to hid under the bed. Or the man that was taped on the bottom of the bed and was shot a lot of times. Schindler's List was a powerful movie that illustrated the days the Jews suffered under Adolf Hitler's rule.

Film Lesson: "Night and Fog"

THE MOVIE NIGHT AND FOG, IS A DOCUMENTARY MADE IN THE YEAR 1956. TEN YEARS AFTER THE LIBERATION OF THE JEWISH FROM THE CONCENTRATION CAMPS. THE DOCUMENTARY WAS SHOT IN THE ABANDONED CAMP OF AUSCHWITZ. THE DOCUMENTARY SHOWED A LOT OF PICTURES THAT WERE TAKEN THE TIME THE JEWS WERE IN THE CONCENTRATION CAMPS UNDER THE OBSERVATION OF THE NAZI. I WAS HORRIFIED TO SEE ALL THOSE PICTURES OF THE HOLOCAUST. I BELIEVE IT WASN'T AS POWERFUL AS "SCHINDLER'S LIST. I BELIEVE SCHINDLER'S LIST WAS BETTER.

The Treaty of Versailles (ended WW I)

The Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919. The treaty required Germany to accept that they were responsible for the war and have to give up land military and the economy. I think the Treaty of Versailles was fair because it prevented Germany from spending time on wars. i also believe the treaty led to the rise of Hitler because it gave him the strength to rise up and "defend" his people.

Another cause of the war was Nationalism. Many ignored nationalism because they thought they would preserve peace. Nationalism unified Italy (1861) and Germany (1871). at the Franco-Prussian the French lost against the Germans and the French wanted revenge . Nationalism was a major problem in Austria-Hungary because they had man national groups and also the Germans supporting the Serbians with the Austrian- Hungarians.
