Huda is a strong women that we meet She has to overcome a great deal of challenges that show how strong she is. One of the first challenges that she has to overcome is the challenge of being in a concentration camp. This is not an easy task to overcome. People that live in these camps do not usually come out alive. She not in a major known camp, but still she was forced to be in a camp. Most people that go to one are forced into hard labor, or they are killed. It is not an easy task to know that there is a possibility that you could die. When she escaped, they were Czechoslovakian so no one wanted to help. This is another struggle Huda had to overcome.

Women were previously seen as inferior sex whose work was just to stay at home and undertake house chores. Previously women were not allowed to vie or participate in any political activities. Male chauvinism was the order of the day. With the Nazi party, the role of women changed drastically. Women played a key role in the Nazi party governance. They could freely exercise their rights thus during the 1930 elections they could only vote for the party that was concerned with their needs. Some of the women were also allowed to carry out official duties, for example due to their proximity to Adolf Hitler, for example, Magna Goebbels and Leni Riefenstahl for excelling in particular fields. The move made women rally themselves and vote in favor of…

Nazi Germany fervently tried to restore and instill traditional values, giving men and women separate and distinct roles with the usage of propaganda to promote their message. Women, of course, were a necessity to Hitler’s vision of an Aryan world, as they were the key to the continuation of the lineage that Nazi Germany strived to keep alive and pure. In the same manner, Nazi Anti-Feminism actively demonized women from being independent and career driven by advocating them to marry, start families, and leave their jobs. Nazi Politician Hermann Goering’s “Nine Commandments for the Worker’s Struggle” was plastered in Berlin, with a special message to women that read, “take hold of the frying pan, dust pan and broom and marry a man!” Popular…
One of the saddest aspects of the Holocaust was not how many lives were lost, but how many souls were lost. Those lucky enough to survive Auschwitz, Buchenwald, and the like came out changed men and women, and not for the better. While some, such as Elie Wiesel, were able to contribute to the world and keep alive the memory of the victims of the Holocaust, many left the experience shells; shadows of their former selves. So much had changed during their time in the concentration camps and they had lost so much of their dignity and identity.…
When I first knew about Julia Hill and her story, I was completely stunned. I had a lot of question; how did she pull off staying there for two years? What did she eat? What did she do to spend that long time? It must have been very crazy to her. I cannot imagine her experience in the trees alone in the night without someone to talk to. Although it was an insane experience, I do approve of hill’s action. Julia Hill had that clarity of doing something good in her life to people and other living things. She fought really hard for a purpose that she truly wanted.…
When Anne Frank said,” In spite of everything, I still believe people are really good at heart”. I strongly Agree with Anne. The Jews were scared when they heard the bombs being dropped. It’s easier now to find out who are Jews or not because they had to sew their stars onto their clothing. Mr.Kraler is going to get caught bringing food to the Jews in the attic. As a matter in fact the holocaust was one of the worst event’s in the world.…
