blog 2 the cage

Yesterday, we explored twenty-eight concepts that pertained to the Jewish Holocaust, and as a class, we constructed a dictionary of terms. 

Which of these twenty-eight entries were you most surprised that you had not heard of before? ...the least? [If you were not surprised, then write about the one you would like to find out more about.] Include the description of the concept [or definition] and your thoughts/feelings.

This entry may be one longer paragraph [at least 7-8 sentences].

I was most surprised that I had never heard of Adolf Eichmann. He was the brains behind the Holocaust while Adolf Hitler was the face. It was surprising to know that he was just as involved as Hitler in the Holocaust. He was also the person who kept the trains going from Europe to the Death Camps. I wasn't surprised that I had never heard of Churchill. He was a British prime minister. He rallied the British people during WWII. He led England to victory.
