Genocide: Background
If you didnt know genocide is a mass killing of a very large group of people becasue of there race,ethnicity, religion and so on. Genocide is a very brutal and disturbing occurence. The biggest genocides the world has seen is during World War II. The Nazi's in germany persecuted mostly the jewish religion they put them in concentration camps making them work with out food, water amd proper clothing. When the camp got over crowded, and inmate acted up or was to weak and could no longer work they would simply kil them. They would kill them in various ways such as firing line, gas chamber and vaious other ways. By the end of the War the Nazi Regime had killed an estimated six million jewish and another five million disabled, homosexual Communists, Socialists, trade unionists and Jehovah's Witnesses. With the information above you can just imagin all of the injustices that occur during a genocide such as this. Genocide is still a really bad problem in many parts of the world.

ReplyDeleteGood article. Missing some important information like how the Nazis also persecuted Gypsies, Mentally challenged, Homosexuals, and Christians. Still, a good article
