why?

Holocaust &

genocide

Unfortunately these are only a few of the many genocides that have taken place throughout history.

The class covers not just the holocaust BUT where and when anti-Semitism began, why the Jews were targeted, what the rest of the world knew and current issues of hate that linger from the events of

the Holocaust.

You will also examine the many genocides that have occurred but continue to be ignored

For more informationplease see mr. murray

in room 125

“we cannot change what happened anymore. The only thing we can do

is to learn from the past and to realize what discrimination and persecution of innocent people

means. I believe that it’s everyone’s responsibility to fight

prejudice.”
