Blog 5: Reader Response

Jeffrey's reminded me of what my U.S. History 2 teacher told us one day. It was in 12th grade, and our class was about to start watching movie called "Saving Private Ryan", when my teacher got into topic of people not believing in Holocaust. At first I thought to myself that this guy is just messing with our heads, but he was not.
My history teacher showed us people who were spreading and making their followers believe that Holocaust never happened and it was just a need for Jewish peolpe to receive pity from the World, and for Germans to be viewed as the country filled with hate and racism.
There is too many documents, photographs, movie recordings to think that the Holocaust was made up by the Jewish people. Many other races died in gas chambers of concentration camps that were located in Europe, not only Jews. I have been to one of them, it's in Poland and it's called Auschwitz. I don't ever want to go to tha camp ever again. When I walked around the camp, I felt the chills all over my body. The belongings of dead people, the tons of hair collected behind glass wall, and huge amount of shoes, it was horrifying how many innocent people died.
Jeffrey spoke about topic that I forgot to reseach after my teacher mentioned that day. It was nice to read someone's Blog, who has similar view as me. I will read about the people who wrote the books about concentration camps and holocaust being a lie.
