  • “And Then They Came for Me...”
    “AND THEN THEY CAME FOR ME...” (Image: The National WWII Museum, 2014.057.036_1.) Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party’s rise to power in Germany ushered in an era of attacks against people Hitler deemed undesirable. Jews living across Europe became the primary target of Nazi hatred and violence. Attacks against other groups of people—such as individuals with mental or physical disabilities, political prisoners, Romani, Soviet citizens and prisoners of war, lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people, Slavs, and Jehovah’s Witnesses—also became a part of the Nazi program to “purify” German society. Those who did not fit within Nazi standards of a “master race” faced capture and horrific brutality in the attempted genocide now known as the Holocaust. From 1939 to 1941, the Nazis steadily took steps toward a formal policy of extermination. Known as the Final Solution, this policy spread to each region that fell under Nazi rule throughout World War II. Anti-Semitism had been present throughout Europe for centuries, peaking during times of upheaval, such as the Crusades or outbreaks of plague. This historical precedent perpetuated hateful stereotypes that again resurfaced in the era of upheaval that followed Germany’s defeat in World War I. While anti-Semitism had been limited to fringe political groups, the rising popularity of the Nazi Party helped promote ideas of segregating and removing the Jewish population from the region. While not all Germans actively supported the anti-Semitic attacks taken by the Nazis, many adopted an attitude of indifference toward the treatment of their Jewish neighbors.

  • Teaching the Holocaust Nonfiction Resources
    TEACHING THE HOLOCAUST NONFICTION RESOURCES This list has been compiled to assist educators in their search for literature to use in teaching the Holocaust to children at all grade levels, K-12. This list is comprehensive but certainly not exhaustive. This research aid contains NONFICTION books whose primary topic is Jewish children who lived during or through the Holocaust. Comprising it is a mixture of literature about Jewish children who did survive the Holocaust and those who did not (most of which are in diary format). Although far fewer in number, books that tell of a person’s life after the War (i.e. in Eretz Israel or the United States) have also been included. Poetry can be found on the fiction resources list. A title’s inclusion herein was based solely upon whatever summary of a book could be found, which has been provided (copied-and-pasted) along with its source (as a website address). The author of this listing made very minor corrections to summaries where needed, including but not limited to: italicizing book titles; changing foreign words (to make spelling uniform throughout); editing for overall mechanics and spelling. Not included in this listing: • Any books whose title suggested appropriateness for inclusion on this list but for which a summary could not be found. • Books whose primary topic is of others (adults or children) who helped Jewish children (to hide, etc.) during the Holocaust or who helped to rescue them. • Books told from the perspective of a non-Jewish child who may have witnessed the mistreatment of Jews or assisted any Jewish person in some way.
