Hitler killed 11 million people, while Stalin, who was the dictator of the USSR (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics) and killed over 20 million people. Stalin didn't want Russia as a poor farming country, so he attempted to turn Russia into an industrial superpower, like America. Many farmers weren't compliant with this idea, so they were all brutally killed, and shot. This also lead to a widespread famine that killed millions of people. Stalin also killed anyone who politically opposed him, and killed people with different views. Kim Jong-un is the current dictator of North Korea. He imposes inhumane laws on his people, and has many brainwashed to think he is some divine ruler chosen by god. A common fact children are taught in school, is that he was born under a double rainbow, and other complete nonsense. Those who break the laws, or even speak out against him are sent to a concentration camp-like prison, along with their whole family, and generations ahead. They are brutally beaten and tortured by the authorities, and oppose most western thought. Kim Jong-un has ordered the execution of hundreds of people, one of them being his half-brother.]]> 2017-03-03 15:34:37 UTC https://padlet.com/afurst/JAMS/wish/157641469 Locations https://padlet.com/afurst/JAMS/wish/157642471 Home to Ghetto to Cattle Carts to Auschwitz to Buna to Running to Gleiwitz to Buchenwald ]]> 2017-03-03 15:37:11 UTC https://padlet.com/afurst/JAMS/wish/157642471 https://padlet.com/afurst/JAMS/wish/157646274 2017-03-03 15:47:42 UTC https://padlet.com/afurst/JAMS/wish/157646274 https://padlet.com/afurst/JAMS/wish/157646513 2017-03-03 15:48:22 UTC https://padlet.com/afurst/JAMS/wish/157646513 https://padlet.com/afurst/JAMS/wish/157646810 2017-03-03 15:49:07 UTC https://padlet.com/afurst/JAMS/wish/157646810 Discussion Questions https://padlet.com/afurst/JAMS/wish/157652372 1.
