==** Sixth graders should learn about the Holocaust. We all know that the Holocaust was a very dark time, but do you think sixth graders are old enough to learn about it? Kids our age were being killed, so why shouldn't kids our age now learn about. All sixth graders are, or should be, mature enough to learn what happened and how it was a big part of history, even though the details are very disturbing. I know that a lot of people disagree with me, but I also know that a lot of people think the same thing. For those people that don't agree with me, I respect that. What do you think? **==

==** We should be able to handle hearing about what happened and all the details. Also because it was 6 million innocent young and old Jews that were killed. Or about how they were killed,or that life isn't fair. These are many examples that we are able to handle. I am not saying that every sixth grader would be able to, but most likely, some of us probably will neglect to learn about it. But the people that can or will, should be comfortable with hearing about the details and things like that. **==

==** Another reason we should learn about the Holocaust is to avoid prejudice. The Holocaust started for one reason, and one reason only. This reason was bullying. For instance, there is Rachel’s Challenge. It was all bullying. If less people learn about it, then history could repeat itself. I am pretty confident that it won’t but I don’t think we should take any chances. It is good that Maud is going to lots of schools to tell people about her experience during that time, because more and more kids and teachers are learning more about what happened. **==

==** The last reason that I think we should learn about the Holocaust is so that it won't happen again. I know that I mentioned this before, but it is very true. George Santyana said "Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it." What he means is that if we don't care to learn about it, we could probably repeat it. He has a very big point. If we ignore the Holocaust, then we have a bigger chance of recreating it. 6 million Jews could die again. That's why we need to learn about it, because we need to learn what happened. For those people who disagree,I respect that, but if you read this, I hope you see this from my point of view.**==

==**Even though a lot of people disagree with me, and a lot people agree with me, I hope that you understand everything I just said. There is also the "//Alphabet of Evil".// And for the people that disagree with me that read this, I hope you see the reason that the people that do agree actually do. I am not saying that I disrespect the people that don't, I just hope they see why I think what I think. I am just trying to get you to see my point. My point is that even though everybody knows about how terrible the Holocaust was, students are age should still learn about it because if they don't history could, but most likely won't, repeat itself.**==
