1. Anti Semitism represented a central tenet of Nazi ideology.
2. The laws excluded German Jews from Reich citizenship and prohibited them from marrying or having sexual relations with persons of "German or German-related blood."
3. The picture makes me feel wonder, because why are the prisoners are dressed in formal cloths
4. Some of the camps are close to the border because some countries are helping the Nazis to eliminate all the Jews in Europe so, the camps near the borders make transporting Jews to the camps easier.
5. Flossenburg is in northeastern Bavaria near the 1937 Czech border. It’s a concentration camp.
6. Euthanasia means “good death”, refers to the inducement of a painless death for a chronically individual who would otherwise, suffer.
7. It started with a decree compelling all physicians, nurses and midwifes to report the disabled children but then in October 1939, public health authorities began to encourage parents to “hand in” their disabled children.
8. It makes me feel really angry, and gives me this sad feeling inside me… I feel like wanting to go back in time and warn them and help them in anyway.
