Film Lesson: "Night and Fog"

This documentary is a more of a real image of the Holocaust. You could actually see the people that were there during that time and how they were treated from real based

Film Lesson: "Schindler's List"

The film "Schindler's List" is an illustration showing what happened in the Holocaust. We were able to see how the Jews were treated first in the Ghettos, the in the Labor Camps and Finally in the concentration camps. This film illustrated how the Jews would hide and then later be killed by the Nazi's. It also illustrated how the families were separated and might have never united again. But despite the fact of the horrible treatment on the Jews and others too, there was a man who had workers that could be saved by him because he was a Nazi member. This man was Schindler and if you made it on his list then the chances of you getting killed were very few because he would save you.
There was apart in this film where they try to separate a little girl from her mom but he stops the officer wnd the little girl can go back with his mother. The Nazi's were trying to have a genocide, or eliminating a race but Schindler was a "good Nazi". If you would like to see a film with the illustration of the Holocaust then this is the film but i recommend you to skip some parts because it can be very strong. One image that will always stay in my mind is the little girl in the pink jacket running up the streets of the Ghetto and then later seeing her being burned in Auschwitiz. It was something very powerful to see how the Nazi's had no compassion over nobody.

US Atomic Bombing of Japan in 1945

I agree that the US Bombing of Japan in 1945 was one of the most major events during the last century. The Bombing of Japan was a turning point for the world because it was during this time that the whole world was getting modernized. The power of the bombs showed the capability of only one country's massive production. Not only were the people amazed at something like this, but it also created great tension of what could happen next.
The bombing caused the death of many innocent people and the vanishment of two cities: hiroshima and Nagasaki. People were seriously hurt with all of the radiations and all with no where to go or nothing to do. In fact this bombing was so strong that a book was written about a little girl who got Lukemia from the bomb radiations. This bok is Sadako and the thousand Paper Cranes.
Some were for the idea of bombing and some weren't, but what done is done.
I don't agree with everything on the list from the article because i don't think that the events were put in order. I don't think that Brown vs. Board of Ed. is more important that the Holocaust or Hitlers reign. This list should be redone.

Germany at War - WWII

The Treaty Of Versaille (end WWI)

The end of World War I was a victory for The Triple Entente and a defeat for The Triple Alliance brought by The Treaty Of Versailles. But towards the end, Germany was blamed for all of the damages in every counrty around the world that was affected.
The Treaty of Versailles brouht major provisions. One of those provisions was the Leage of Nations. It was an international peace organization that consisted of 32 members: both allies and other neutral countries. Among those were the "Big Three: U.S., France and Britain". Another provision that affected Germany in a great way was Territorial Losses. As aresult Germany had land removed from all over the world and later other countries were formed. The third major provision was Military Restrictions. Germany was forced to limit their navy and army to almost 100,000 men and to remove their army and navy from Rhineland. The last provision was War Guilt. This ment that Germany was blamed for everything and was forced to sign and accept the consequences. This left a resentment of anger in all Germans.
In fact many historians agree that this was what led to WWII and that Adolf Hitler and his fascism. A desire of revenge and to recover everything that was lost.

Mustafa Kemal (Ataturk) and the Modernization of Turkey

Mustafa Kemal became the reformer of Turkey. He brought turkey to the moder world of Europe. But to make it large, he had to start with the most minimum thing: that was their clothing. Mustafa Kemal wanted to get Turkey out of the traditional world.

He wanted the Turks to get rid of their 'Fez' which was their tradional hat and modernize it to a brimmed Panama hat. But that wasn't it. He wanted to create a feeling of nationalism, which is like pride to ones country. Mustafa Kemal wanted the turks to get out of the religious feeling and it to a secular state, or a non religious state and giving women poewer and rights. Mustafa Kemal was eventually called ATATURK-meaning father of the turks.

Film Review "Gandhi"

GANDHI: India's Leader To Independence.

India was found to be in the darkness under the British rule for over 200 years. It was full of harsh treatement and seemed to be at it's end. British people were very much prejedice towards the Indiand people and didnt seem to care about them and the Indian people were getting tired. Yet little did they know that there was another way of confronting the British.

Mahatma Gandhi was their leader for India's independence. He was aleader who used passive resistance and non-violence. In, other words the British did everything to him and the Indian people but he would not fight back. This I belive is the strongest way of fighting back because the Brithish would eventually get tired that they did not repond back. One of the mst impacting things that he did was when he decided to make his own clothes.

I thought that this was a great impact because now the Brithish wouldn't make as much money as they would if the Indian people were buying from them. It brought their economy down. Indeed that his passive resistance led to an impact in India that would later lead them to independence. Although I do think that most of their independence was led by Gandhi because he was the one who inspired the others to step up for their rights. I don't think that it would of happened anyway because no one was standing up for their rights yet. Gandhi's step surely led to India's independence especially considering that countries like England were involved in Hitlers' position in WWII.
