The Holocaust started in the year 1933 and was lead by Adolf Hitler The Holocaust was the systematic, state- sponsored persecution and murder of approximately six million Jews by the Nazi regime
The term "Holocaust," originally from the Greek word "holokauston" which means "sacrifice by fire," refers to the Nazi's persecution and planned slaughter of the Jewish people
Nazi’s did not only go after Jewish people, they also targeted Gypsies, homosexuals, people with disabilities, and Jehovah’s Witnesses. Hitler wanted to terminate all Jews and create an Aryan nation
It is estimated that during the Holocaust 11 million people were killed. 6 million of those people were Jews The Nazi’s killed approximately two-thirds of all Jews living in Europe
On April 1, 1933, the Nazis initiated their first action against Jews by boycotting all Jewish-run businesses On September 15, 1935, the Nuremberg Laws were issued and began to exclude Jews from public life
After WWII started, the Nazi’s ordered all Jewish people to wear a yellow Star of David on their clothing so they could be easily recognized and as a result targeted
The night of November 9- 10, 1938, Nazis incited a riot against Jews in Austria and Germany in what has been termed, "Kristallnacht,” which means “Night of Broken Glass”
This night of violence included the pillaging and burning of synagogues, breaking the windows of Jewish-owned businesses, the looting of these stores, and many Jews were physically attacked. Also, approximately 30,000 Jews were arrested and sent to concentration camps
Jews (among the others that were targeted by the Nazi Regime) were forced to live in ghettos and/or got transferred to a concentration camp where they were put to death or worked to death
There were many different types of concentration camps: labor camps, extermination camps, transit camps, and prisoner-of-war camps Life within Nazi concentration camps were atrocious and inhumane
One of the first concentration camps was Dachau, which opened on March 20, 1933; and one of the most famous and largest concentration camps was Auschwitz which opened in May of 1940
