Reflection on Holocaust

I used to think that the Holocaust was just murders against the Jews. I also didn’t realize how horrendous it was, I knew it was bad, but no that bad because I never saw pictures of human bodies like that. I also used to think that ghettos were just a place to “store” the Jews while they were waiting to go to the concentration camp. I didn’t know that it was a concentration camp before a concentration camp. I didn’t know how important the Jewish resistance was and how it gave others hope. Like I knew it happened, but not how important it was.

I now know that the Holocaust was a murdering against others like homosexuals, gypsies etc. I now realize how badly they were treated, how much they were starved and deprived of everything. I can’t believe that they look like skeletons they literally didn’t look like humans anymore. I now know that the Nazi’s put Jews in charge of the ghettos and even in charge of the work blocks in the concentration camp. I now know that the Jews had to walk from concentration camp to concentration camp when other armies were advancing.
