i found this site/essay really enteresting. Its about the research of how the holocaust effected people, and the feeling people have after the fact. He has some facts about it, and some studies done by psychologist. It makes you really think about how there are people in the world still dealing w/ it, people who it still effects, and how past can effect the present.

Holocaust movie

The movie we watched in class was really sad. It really made me think for the first time about all the people and the stuff they had to go through. I realized that my grandparents were teenagers during this time and they had to deal w/ all other the issues the Holocaust created for our country. I know alot of think that this stuff was in the past and couldn't happen to us, but the fact that it DID happen and it wasn't even that long ago, lets us know that it could in fact happen again (or something of the sort). I have been to the museum of tolerance several years ago and it didn't have that much of an impact on me, mostly because i was young and when your younger it's not as real as it is when you get older. It makes me realize that my life could be so much worst; as much as I sometimes think I have it so bad, I know it could be so much worst for me, and i think all the people who went through it are really strong people and heroes to us and should always be remembered for what they did and went through.
