Should six-graders learn about the Holocaust?

Response (older brother Jonah)- Yes. Yes because the Holocaust is an important historical event. I think at the age group from 12-13 is an appropriate age group to learn about the atrocities that occured during that time. During this time period, the lives of many innocent blacks, Jews, homosexuals, and anyone else who wasn't blonde haired and blue eyed were taken. A large group of people were murdered in cold blood for the "crime" of being different. The Holocaust can be used as an opportunity to teach children about humanity, the sancitiy of human life, and how differences among people should be cherished instead of punished.
