I understand why most of you are shocked to learn that I didn’t know much about the holocaust but The Holocaust is not a standard part of the curriculum in Nigerian schools. The educational focus in Nigeria typically emphasizes national history, regional issues, and broader African history rather than European history. Some private or international schools in Nigeria might include the Holocaust as part of their world history or social studies programs, (I was in a public school) but this is not widespread. The general curriculum set by the Nigerian Ministry of Education does not mandate detailed teaching of the Holocaust.. I am literally just learning about the world through this channel. PLEASE BE KIND WITH YOUR WORDS

I do not fault anyone for the lack of knowledge taught to them. The world is rewritten history. No mentions of the Inquestions that occurred, I am Christian. But people need to know how barbaric people could be and still are. Africa has been ravaged and little is taught. I am an American so my knowledge of how history is taught in other countries. Sadly genocide still occurs today.

Don't feel guilty about not knowing things from history, how could you know about something that you were never taught. That was then and this is now, and now you're learning about it and there's nothing wrong with that. Being curious and learning things is always a good thing at any age. Remember knowledge is power. You seem to be a very good-hearted and nice person from what I can see here on RU-vid I've enjoyed plenty of your other music reaction videos too.

@@reddragonready Be kind! Many people, especially the younger generations, are completely unaware of most of the history that boomers were routinely taught. You must know that schools today are not for education but are for the indoctrination of people who are to learn only to keep their mouth shut and uncomplainingly work. Witness the rampant destruction of our historical artifacts and the PC renaming of our institutions. In addition, there are those who are almost criminally misleading inn trying to convince the world that the Holocaust never happened... that Auschwitz was only a detainment camp.

I am an American living in Korea and I’ve taught German culture and language as well as world history. Many years ago I took a group of American high school students to Germany and one day we visited one of the death camps (now a memorial to teach everyone what happened). It was a somber day, but necessary I think. I applaud you for taking the initiative to teach yourself. Genocide is all too common, tragically. Keep up the learning and spread knowledge to others so we may live in a more peaceful world. Thank you.

In Germany, we learn as children that the Holocaust happened. Schoolchildren visit the concentration camps. When I visited Dachau concentration camp for the first time about 38 years ago, I cried. It is unimaginable. You still can't comprehend it today. I also visited the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. Many people lay painted stones at the memorial site. When you see with your own eyes how big the concentration camps were, it touches you even more. Many people in Germany and Europe are doing a lot to ensure that something like this never happens again. It doesn't matter what color your skin is, what nationality you are or what religion you belong to. We should all respect each other.

I was born in the late 1940s and I can remember being shown films of the Holocaust when I was in 6th grade. The television stations ran films periodically on the horrors of the Holocaust. My history teacher in college made "The Rise and Fall of The Third Riech" mandatory reading and then we discussed it for weeks. Yes, history can and sometimes is messy, ugly, painful and can scare us, embarrass us but it is necessary to know it, to learn from it or we repeat it, especially the ugly, hurtful parts. Knowledge of our history is an armor for our future.

@@gatroy13 Idk, as a french, we had history during every year of primary and secondary school. (so basically from age 7 to 17-18). We also had to learn 2 language in addition to french classes during that time. During the 4 years of history in primary school, we visited all the European history, from prehistory to modern times. Then we did it again in the first 4 years of secondary school. In the last 3 years of primary school, we did it again, with a greater focus on modern history. And I was in a science major program for those last 3 years. So... I think there is plenty of time to learn history in school, it's just that a lot of countries don't put an emphasis on it or discard it as a less useful subject, so less important. Of course we mainly learned history centred around France and french culture, but we still learned about American history for example, with the American Revolution etc.

The issue is not the hatred of one man. The issue is how easily an entire country can be convinced that a culture of hate should be the norm. The conclusion is, sadly, that many do not take much convincing. The idea of seeing yourself as part of a superior group and seeing others as inferior is common throughout history. Race, gender, religion, physical or mental ability or any combination of traits. The key to power is to convince people that their problems can be blamed on 'The Other' and then it's a small step to dictatorship..Just look at the USA right now...

What you watched - and I salute you for watching it - barely scratches the surface of the true horror that was the Holocaust. I have studied WW2 for the last 40 years, and it took me over 20 of those to begin to conceive of the scope of it. I heard an interview with a survivor who told how the younger generation, upon learning about his past, asked him how he could still laugh. He said (paraphrased, to the best of my memory) "If I had never laughed again, I might as well have let them k!ll me."

The worst thing is, this video doesn´t even go into the ´details´. Thousands of people died at every single step towards the camps. In the trains, in the death marches when trains were too full (there were hundreds of people in just one wagon, often for days, having to pee and defecate right where they´re standing, leading to more deaths due to starvation, disease or getting pushed/stomped to death due to there being absolutely NO space for the people to move a single inch). People were absolutely dehumanized every single day in camps, forced to run naked in freezing temps, having to sleep in freezing warehouses on wooden bed frames in groups and on the cold cement floors and so on, sometimes when people were coming in to check on the well-fare of the people in the camps (because of course, all other citizens were lied to as to what was actually happening to the people in camps), everyone was put into nice clean clothes, put in front of food after starving for months and if someone actually tried to eat the food, they´d be executed as well and this list just goes on and on, It´s honestly impossible to even wrap your head around how fucked up it all was. The sheer brutality and utter lack of any empathy is just, absolutely insane. And It´s even more sad that TODAY camps like these still exist in some parts of the world...

No one man could do this - he had thousands and thousands of accomplices. Not just in the Nazi government and the SS, but in towns and villages. One Lithuanian survivor tells that a neighbour took his coat from him, when the Nazis came and rounded up the Jewish people of the town, saying "you won't need this anymore." A witness recounts a few soldiers lining up men, women, and god help us, little children, in front of ditches to be shot to death. Major sites of murder yes, and major players and architects of this horror, but also little acts of cruelty and individuals in a forest somewhere choosing to be barbaric murderers. The scale of this nightmare is almost too much to comprehend. It's never just one man.

Adolf Hitler didn't commit suicide because he felt bad for what he had done. In April 1945, he knew that the Red Army was closing in and were in Berlin, and that he would go down in defeat. A couple weeks prior, his Italian Ally and fellow Dictator Benito Mussolini had been captured in Italy and murdered, his body beaten and abused, documented and photographed for the world. Adolf Hitler feared that this would happen to him if captured by the Red Army. Adolf Hitler expected his own army and the civilians to fight to the last man but he was a coward and took his own life and had his body burned in hopes that his body wouldn't be found. Dictators expect their own people to suffer and die for their cause but will always take the easy way out when they know that they are defeated.

When I was in high school we had a survivor come to talk in front of the school. I remember at the beginning people were just being loud and you could hardly hear her speak. Soon, things got quieter when she started talking about what happened to her. How she watched her entire family thrown into the ovens alive. By the time she was talking about how she was liberated by the U.S. army you could have heard a pin drop. Afterwards I walked up to her and thanked her for coming to our school and talking to us. I remember seeing the number tattooed on her wrist when I shook her hand. That whole experience has stayed in my memory for 35 years now. I will never forget it.

In answer to your question, "Did they find out why Hitler hated the Jews?" No, scholars have speculated he had Jewish heritage, but antisemitism was extremely commonplace in not just Germany but most of the world at that point. You have to understand that when the video you're reacting to says Jews tried to flee Germany once the Nazis held control of Germany,, most of the nations which fought against the Axis Powers of WWII--including England and the USA--rejected Jewish refugees and dismissed claims that extermination camps were being built and run to wipe out the Jews.

Not so. "Did they find out why Hitler hated the Jews?" Hitler's Nazis were founded in his National Socialist Party. They were not 'right-wing' but racially distinct, ideologically 'left-wing', socialists who despised free-market capitalism. Hitler, and many Germans, hated Jewish people because they considered them capitalists. In particular they hated Jewish bankers, blaming them for the fall of post-WWI Germany (just Google this for more detail). Although also socialists (National Socialists), Nazis considered International Socialism (left-wing Communism) to be a Jewish conspiracy. You need to read 'Mein Kampf', wherein the origins of Hitler's ideology are described. The Nazis and Communism were both left-wing ideologies. The Book "Nietzsche and the Nazis" by Stephen Hicks describes this very well.

This is not my story, it is my father's, recounted to me a few times over the course of his life. My father was a teenager during world war two, living in occupied Holland. His last name was Cohen. Fortunately he and his immediate family were able to procure forged papers to change their name. The forged papers were not enough to save my grandfather who died in front of my father when the gestapo came for him, but somehow they ignored the boy. I suspect there was some humanity left in those Germans. The contact that allowed him those papers allowed him to join the resistance, or perhaps it was the inverse. My father wanted to fight, but he was still too young and too small to be given a fighting role. His youth however allowed him to not be seen as a threat by the enemy, to pass much more easily. He was given the job of runner, he kept communication between several cells of the resistance. He was however still affiliated with a particular cell, with whom he spent much time. One day he was going to join his cell at their 'headquarters', and saw that there was an unusual level of activity by the Germans in the immediate area. They were clearly getting ready to assault my father's cell. Rather than running, which might well have been the smart thing to do from a civilian perspective, he snuck through the Germans to get inside to his friends, to warn them. Warn them he did and they set to arming themselves, getting ready to sell themselves dearly. My father wanted to fight, but his compatriots were steadfast in their refusal. He had a job to do they told him, he had to report the destruction of the cell. It was too late for him or anyone to escape, so they had him crawl up the chimney to hide. Shortly thereafter, the gunfire started. He stayed there for hours after the gunfire ended, waiting for silence, and when he finally came out, there were no Germans present. The bodies of all his friends though still were. The whole of his life afterwards, virtually every waking moment from that point forth was spent atoning for the guilt of surviving. It had profound, devastating effects on the quality of his life after that, and domino effects on the people around him. His personal life was a perpetual shambles and his dreams haunted. However he became a doctor, one of the first emergency medical specialists and spent his life crusading to improve emergency medicine. He was personally responsible for saving thousands of lives and indirectly countless more.

My parents were teenagers in the Netherlands during WWII. My dad had several places with other families where he'd go to pretend he was someone else when the Nazi's came with their list of young men to take off to the factories. It was only in 2010 that he recounted a close encounter with the soldiers. They surprised him by showing up at one of his locations, so he ducked into a chicken coop just before they caught sight of him. It was tiny, cramped, dusty and smelly in there, but he crouched down and stayed absolutely still as they questioned the family RIGHT outside the coop. At one point a bomb dropped nearby enough to shake the ground and the coop filled up with all the fine dust from the chickens. But he couldn't make a sound. He couldn't breathe, but a cough would have given him away. He held his breath as long as possible, nearly passing out until the dust settled enough he could breathe again. He told me this while helping me build a chicken coop for our place.

I really wish I could go back today to re-hear, and re-engage to give them the proper respect they deserved by sharing of their very personal life experiences. Those survivors & their messages were gifts.

Sarah I was born in Germany right after the war, I was put into an orphanage. I was adopted by American people after WWII, I grew up in Ca USA. I was privileged to be able to care for a Jewish woman who had escaped a camp. She was very old, was one huge scar. Don't know if she was burned badly or beaten so badly. I was a certified nursing assistant in a hospital. and I was able to care for her. She had night terrors. I loved her. She use to call us "my heart' She was such a sweet lady. Not all Germans felt like Hitler and his kind. Many of us Germans hated what he did.

Not so ignorant if they recognize how history is repeating itself when Trump attacks and divides people based on race, religion etc and copies the language of Hitler. "Former President Donald Trump, who has been criticized for embracing some of the rhetoric of Nazi leader Adolf Hitler on the campaign trail, praised the genocidal German dictator while he was in the White House, his former chief of staff Marine General John Kelly, and other top aides told CNN. “He said, ‘Well, but Hitler did some good things.’ I said, ‘Well, what?’ And he said, ‘Well, [Hitler] rebuilt the economy.’ But what did he do with that rebuilt economy? He turned it against his own people and against the world. And I said, ‘Sir, you can never say anything good about the guy. Nothing,’” retired Marine Gen. John Kelly said. “It’s pretty hard to believe he missed the Holocaust, though, and pretty hard to understand how he missed the 400,000 American GIs that were killed in the European theater.”

Have you missed the White Nationalist marches of late in Tennessee, or glossed over Congress Representatives MTG and Boebert saying there’s nothing wrong with White Nationalist Pride and other GOP members appearing on stage at public events with prominent members of the White Nationalist Party? Nazis? Maybe not yet, but brick by brick a wall is built, it doesn’t just appear. While the good standby and shake their collective heads and the naysayers say “that’s not enough to be really bad “ by the time they see the evil for what it is the time to act is past. So shake your head and believe whatever makes you feel safe, but there is no rest for the wicked and evil does not rest, it just grows.

My family lived in an old papal residence on the only golf course in Rome during WWII, and my bisnonno was managed the course and hosted many dignitaries, both Allied and Axis leaders, including Hitler and Mussolini, who was a frequent dinner guest. My family did not agree with the Italian government, but toed the line for safety, however my Nonna and Zia, aged in 10 and 14, hid Jewish refugees fleeing persecution under the enemy’s nose. My nonna passed away several years ago, but my Zia and I are close and in frequent contact. I visit whenever I can, and finally convinced her this summer before I left to write her story. It’s priceless. I am so proud to be their descendant, and can only hope to live up to their expectations, especially my Nonna. I am honored to be her namesake, and inspire to be half of the woman she was.

In the early 1990's, I was a young nurse in a walk-in medical clinic in the US. My next patient was the cutest grandpa ever; he was smiling and twinkly-eyed and so, so nice. When he rolled up his shirt sleeve for me to take his blood pressure, I saw the crudely tattooed number on his forearm. We had a little moment that I'll never forget. And I will never forget him. And now you, too, know that he existed and was still able to live and love. Yeah, the Holocaust happened. I saw the proof. And I saw proof that good can conquer evil.

Good and Evil do not exist in absolutes, it is an extremely childish vision of the reality of things. For what ? Because those are only mental productions nourished by one's own opinions. Everyone has their own vision of Good and Evil and everyone thinks that they are valid because they are precisely theirs. Please understand what I'm saying: your "He is Pure Evil" view is, ultimately, no more different than those who think their actions causing suffering are justified. It is this type of discourse fueled by attachment and madness - for the most serious cases - which is the creator and driving force of discord and hatred. For Hitler and his supporters, the Jews (to name but a few) were the Evil that was consuming society and their ambitions were justified for them. Unfortunately, the conditions were ripe for them to carry out their abominable madness. But don't think that Hitler and his followers were the only ones...in truth, friend, opinions are the wheels of the world, attachment is the hub. This crazy world has never stopped spinning for millennia and it is not ready to stop...

Many people from other countries actually can't imagine, how big the Nazis damaged Germany. A few examples: In Germany, only a few people say "I am proud to my country." Some people are even ashamed to say that they're from Germany. Additionally, too many citizens don't really support the Bundeswehr (the German army) and aren' thankful to our soldiers, who fought and died in e.g. Afghanistan. This led to the underfunding of the Bundeswehr, alhough we are one of the countries with the best tanks :). Of course, many people from Germany enjoy living there and love their country (so am I), and we are really trying to make the best out of our past. For example, if you say Nazi paroles or do the "Hitler-Sign", you can get sued for that and even go in prison for some years. I am a student from Germany, so you may excuse some mistakes in grammar. Let me no them, I'll fix them. Personally I am very proud of the coutry I was born in and I am living in. Germany is nice, very very nice. To every soldier, ambulance man, police officer, firefighter or volunteer - THANKS FOR YOUR SERVICE. Thanks for keeping Germany safe, even on the other side of the world. Thanks for your help inside of Germany and the safety you provide. Thank you, that I am able to call an ambulance when I need one or I can rely on the police, when someones threatens me. Thanks to this country, which will be my home for ... forever.

I read a book, a compilation of stories of adult survivors of the holocaust. I remember many stories but one particulary. This man told how he was laying on the ground waiting for death, starving all just skin and bones, barely a human anymore when the americans liberated the camp. A black soldier found him and gave him chocolate. He was so hungry and literally dying that the first thing he remembered of this encounter was food reaching his mouth. Once his blood sugar went up he understood that a black person was standing in front of him, that was the first time he saw a black man. They both cried. I had to put the book down to go cry and recover. This is a story that is equally cruel and beautiful.

They are traveling at night from one farm to another, for shelter and food. They're not even jewish, but dark haired enough to be mistaken. They are found and they run. They run and there is screaming and gunshots. They get across the field and the other farmers are there and they are saved. It isn't until he is on the wagon that he realises his little brother is not with him. He wasn't ever seen again. I don't think he ever recovered.

My deep respect for learning what you were not taught in school, having an open mind in this and being free with showing your emotions. Unfortunately, it was nót 'just one man', it was an ideology that was widely accepted (and unfortunately is on the rise again). Perhaps not the ease and efficiency of the genocide, but the thought behind it "these people are not human, they are vermin" was (and in many parts still is) considered normal. The boy in the striped pyjama is indeed a beautiful and heartbreaking movie and though it is fictional, the background (the camp and the camp warden) was very much based on facts. Schindler's List is actually based on a real person, again very beautiful and heartbreaking. The Zookeeper's Wife is also based on a true story and worth watching. The Book Thief may not be based on actual real persons, the setting was real and gives an unique perspective. Again, I'd like to commend you for wanting to learn and I appreciated your reaction video. Love from the Netherlands, Petra 💛

I have a problem with this yelling of history. Don't get me wrong, I know that I am somewhat better informed than many these days. But there is one mistake that upsets me. First, the number of massacred people should be twelve million not six. Half of those who were murdered were Jewish but that does not mean that the rest were not there and do not count. Twelve million human beings were slaughtered in those caps. Second, the atrocities were not limited to the camps. Millions were killed in villages, cities, and the countryside. It was the largest set of atrocities in human history.
