Concentration camps were wicked, cruel, and a place where Jews were dehumanized by the Nazis. As soon as they entered they were stripped of their belongings. Taking away a sense of anything to value. Then they were separated into male and female, furthermore it was common for mothers and daughters and father and sons to get separated in the process as well. The Jews then had to remove their clothes and change into a uniform that helped fade their sense of self identification. While they were their they were treated badly no food for long period of times, they were worked, and conditions of the barracks were disease ridden. The worst part for many would be the transition to being sent to death camps, there they would be sent to gas chambers where they were killed inhumanely. Many after the war will never be able to forget the torture that they were put through.

Never shall I forget that smoke. Never shall I forget the little faces of the children, whose bodies I saw turned into wreaths of smoke beneath a silent blue sky.

Never shall I forget those flames which consumed my faith forever.

Never shall I forget that nocturnal silence which deprived me, for all eternity, of the desire to live. Never shall I forget those moments which murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams to dust.

1. CLASSIFICATION: Germans and Jews.

2. SYMBOLIZATION:  We name people “Jews” to distinguish them by colors or dress; and apply the symbols to members of groups. The yellow star for Jews under Nazi rule.

3. DISCRIMINATION: Nuremberg Laws of 1935 in Nazi Germany, which stripped Jews of their German citizenship, and prohibited their employment by the government and by universities.

4. DEHUMANIZATION: The Nazis would take away the Jews clothes, starve them, separate them from procreating.

5. ORGANIZATION: Concentration camps to hold the Jews. People were packed into trains and transported like animals.

6. POLARIZATION: Nazis put out posters slandering the Jews beliefs and upbringings.

7.  PREPARATION: The “Final Solution” was created during the Wannsee Conference in January 1942. High-ranking Nazis met in Wannsee, and presented a program to deport all Jews to Poland where the SS would kill them.

8. PERSECUTION: They were deported into concentration camps, or confined to a famine-struck region and starved.  Genocidal massacres begun. There are acts of genocide because they intentionally wanted to destroy part of their group.

9. EXTERMINATION: When the people entered the camps, the soldiers guided the jews into showers, but really they were gas chambers pouring poison on their bodies. They also starved them by only letting a person eat 1 loaf of bread and i bowl of soup each week. Also, if people were not doing their work, the nazis would shoot them.

10. DENIAL: Some people try to deny that the Holocaust even occurred by burning the strict documentation that the Nazis kept. So that facts about how many Jews were killed wouldn’t be found so they thought that they wouldn’t be caught.
