Meaning of Swastika .

The symbol of Swastika had a very powerful meaning for manny years. Its was used when the Germans killed millions of people. The symbol was a negative meaning to some people , but to some it was a positive one. The meaning was positive , good and lucky . But its meaning changed in the 1800's when the symbol was handed to the nazi's it turned into a symbol of violence and hate.

Near the End.

1. The Holocaust ended at the end of World War 2 in the years 1944-1945 . After Russia and the U.S won the war, the allies began to release prisoners from the camps.

2. hitler committed suicide with his wife Eva by a gunshot.


3. Reading this book taught me many things, it showed me the things that were going on in the world and still are. The Holocaust is a very big issue that caught my attention . many innocent people were killed just because of a cruel persons decision and it made me realize it can happen to anyone .

Genocide .

As it happened in the Holocaust , it also happened in other places around the world. Genocide also process in Rwanda , killing up to 1 million people which is about 20% of the countries population.This was similar to the holocaust as the prisoners were taken to the consentration camps and murdered if they did not do as directed.As hours , minutes, and even seconds passed , lives were lost. Lives of innocent people that were killed because of cruel ones.

Title Night .

  I think that the author of the book chose the title night to show the darkness he felt. Night shows fear , and suffer. Which represents what the book was mostly about. It means the darkness that they felt , which represented the night .

Important People of the Holocaust

                                                                       Adolf Hitler

Adolf Hitler was a Austrian man who rose to power in Germany. Once he was in control he started a program of world domination to eliminate jews . He had many goals and when he said something , he stayed to his world and completeted every one of his promises.

Auscwitz image

I picked this image because it shows when the prisoners first arrived at the camp. It shows them with their valuable belongings that they thought they were going to be able to keep. while they were thinking they were going to a better place , they were really being taken to become prisoners.

Why not escape?

I think the prisoners from the holocaust did not escape because they were in fear. They were scared that if the would attempt to escape, their families would be in trouble. They were all tricked ,and told that they would be let free and go home. They were gullable and believed everything the guards told them.
