Lessons from the Holocaust

Sat., June 22, 2019

I believe the lessons of the Holocaust should be taught in our high schools. An excellent resource would be Rick Steve’s video, “The Rise of Fascism in Europe.” The parallels with what is happening in our county are plain to see.

Another resource is Elie Weisel’s book, “Night,” which young people could relate to - a horrible system seen through the eyes of a 16-year-old boy. Young people need to know what these inhumane philosophies lead to.
