==== The Holocaust, also known as The Final Solution, was one of the most horrifying times in history. During this time, many innocent people were killed in cold blood and died in vain, just because they were "different" in other people's perspectives. People should learn about this tragic time to understand things about the world, and to remember all of the innocent people that died during this dark time.

I think six-graders should learn about the Holocaust because we possess the maturity, the knowledge of prejudicial actions, and the wisdom that history repeats itself. ‍====

====Six-graders should learn about the Holocaust because we have the maturity to learn what happened during this terrifying We have the knowledge to understand these things, and to comprehend the horrible genocide and discrimination that happened.

They also blamed many people for their problems, in this case, the Jews. ‍"What is the Alphabet of Evil? Auschwitz, Buchenwald, Chelmno, the names of camps, rolling off the tongue, the tongue lolling in the mouth, the mouth hanging open, broken teeth, a gasp of breath, the alphabet of death," says Jane Yolen. ‍ This is indeed true, since people were "different" in the eyes of the Nazis. Hitler had very specific features of his idea of the "perfect race" on Earth, the Aryan race. ====

This was an extremely horrifying and tragic event. If we learn about this this topic, we can be prepared to stop it if it happens again. As Jonah Dori once said, " We must remember our past, in order do have a better future." This is true. We must remember the past, to prevent anything similar in the future. Discrimination and genocide can be happening across the street, or even next to you. ====
