RLB 4: Research an instance of injustice, the act of an individual or group upon another individual or group. How did that make you feel (be specific and detailed)? Don’t forget to cite your source(s).
A well known 'era' of injustice was when Adolf Hitler came to power during the late 1930s and early-mid 1940s. During his reign of terror, Adolf Hitler launched many anti-Semitic laws. Eventually, he came up with the 'Final Solution.' The Final Solution was the 'solution' to the 'Jewish question.' This was also known as the Holocaust. During the Holocaust, Jews were systematically murdered by the Nazis. This was genocide against the Hebrew people. Also, the Holocaust was an excuse to kill unwanted people in Nazi Germany. Unwanted people consisted of gypsies, disabled people, and homosexual people. This event made me pity the victims of the murderous genocide and despise Hitler and his accomplices. This is because I read accounts about Jewish people who had gone through the suffering. I read books such as Night by Elie Wiesel which describe with detail about the conditions in the concentration camps and how family members were lost.
