  4. TuesdayApril 7th, 2009 (4/7/2009) WARM UP Time Given: 3 minutes Consider the following quote:“One death is a tragedy. A million deaths are a statistic.” Write a 3 minute reflection on what you think this quote means. What kind of images does it bring to your mind? Explain your answer in as much detail as you can provide.

  5. A Time To Be Serious… NO NOTES In this class, there are times to joke around and to be funny. Today is not that day. What we study today are actual REAL events that happened to people just like you—people with hopes, dreams, and families—whose lives were taken from them against their will. I ask that you be respectful and mature in what we read/look at today.

  6. Why Do We Study The Holocaust? NO NOTES Any suggestions?

  7. Why Do We Study The Holocaust? NO NOTES “Ignorance and denial are two reasons why history repeats itself.” By claiming that the Holocaust isn’t important or that it never happened insures that it will happen again. If you think that people “know better” now—consider the following:

  8. Why Do We Study The Holocaust? NO NOTES Everyone please…

  9. Why Do We Study The Holocaust? NO NOTES Tomorrow I’ll show you how a suggestion from an authority figure turned into an order that no one could refuse and that no one thought was wrong.

  10. Be Prepared! NO NOTES To take a lot of notes today—these notes will be on your test for this unit at the end of April and will help you better understand the novel and what is going on inside it. Any questions?

  11. Aftermath of World War I NO NOTES When we read Johnny Got His Gun, you took notes on World War I. At that time I explained to you how WWI lead to WWII, but I’d like to recap it now.

  12. World War I NO NOTES Lasted from 1914-1919 Occurred when the Arch Duke was shot/killed Allied Powers France, Britain, Russia, USA (involved when the Lucitania sank) Central Powers Hungary, Germany, Austria 20 million deaths This is where Dalton Trumbo got his idea for Johnny Got His Gun—a man injured in war that is neither living nor dead.

  13. World War II (Nutshell) TAKE NOTES Lasted from 1939-1945 70 million people died

  14. World War II TAKE NOTES As a result of World War I… Germany had restrictions placed on it…mostly Limited military size Other countries struggled to be the most powerful in the immediate area: China Russia = created the Soviet Union (USSR) Japan

  15. World War II TAKE NOTES The United States and the Soviet Union are now the two “super powers” in the world. Germany, does not like the restrictions placed upon its military program and decides to “rearm” itself—it’s new identity is now called Nazi Germany and is run by a man called… Adolf Hitler

  16. World War II TAKE NOTES In 1939, Germany invades Poland. From 1939 to 1941, Germany invades and conquers many countries, including France, Netherlands, Belgium, and the Soviet Union. During this time, Germany creates the “Axis” alliance, consisting of: Japan Italy Germany The Soviet Union thought about joining, but an agreement would not be reached in time, so they were invaded.

  17. World War II TAKE NOTES In 1941, Japan, an ally of Germany bombs Pearl Harbor. The act was supposed to keep the USA out of the war, but actually thrust them INTO the war instead.

  18. World War II TAKE NOTES The United States joins other countries in a group called “The Allies”: Britain Soviet Union United States of America

  19. World War II TAKE NOTES In 1944, the Allies invade France and liberate it from German occupation. The allies continue to push back German forces until they surrenders in April of 1944.

  20. World War II NO NOTES World War II happened…but The big question that remains is WHY and HOW did it happen?

  21. Adolf Hitler TAKE NOTES Ruler of Germany from 1933 to 1945 Veteran of World War I. Married his mistress in 1945—committed suicide 2 days later.

  22. Adolf Hitler TAKE NOTES Wrote a book titled, MeinKampf, which means “my struggle.” In this book, he expressed his ideas about why Germany was no longer a superpower: “The Jewish Problem.”

  23. Adolf Hitler NO NOTES “Once I really am in power, my first and foremost task will be the annihilations of the Jews. As soon as I have the power to do so, I will have gallows built in rows…the Jews will be hanged, and the will remain hanging until they stink…as soon as they have been untied, the next batch will be sent up, until the last Jew has been exterminated.”

  24. Adolf Hitler NO NOTES Because of these ideas, Hitler convinces the rest of Germany that the Jews are to blame for their problems. This leads to what is known as “The Holocaust.”

  25. The Holocaust TAKE NOTES From the Greek word: Holos = completely Kaustos = burn Translated now as “disaster.”

  26. The Holocaust TAKE NOTES Hitler set up concentration camps in various cities to exterminate the Jews (and many others) Men Women Children Most were burned alive Others were tortured

  27. The Holocaust TAKE NOTES One such well known torturer was Josef Mengele, also known as “the angel of death.”

  28. Mengele NO NOTES Mengele performed many experiments—most on children, consisting of: Injecting drugs Freezing them Attempting to change their eye color by injecting chemicals into their eyes Brutal surgeries.

  29. Quote from a Witness NO NOTES “I remember one set of twins in particular: Guido and Ina, aged about four. One day, Mengele took them away. When they returned, they were in a terrible state: they had been sewn together, back to back, like Siamese twins. Their wounds were infected and oozing pus. They screamed day and night. Then their parents – I remember the mother's name was Stella – managed to get some morphine and they killed the children in order to end their suffering.”

  30. The Holocaust Aftermath TAKE NOTES About 6 million Jews were exterminated
