Current Event #4


     This article is about a group of researcher that have conducted research on the holocaust. They've found a broader number of the concentration camps. However, as stated in the article “Poland, remains the city that had the most ghettos” (USHMM). Jews where the main target of the Germans. However, other minor groups were also killed.

     This article relates to the lesson we are now learning in English 10. Since we are reading the book Night about the holocaust and also during some online activities on the holocaust i felt as if this article could relate well. My position on this article is that we should have more research done on the holocaust so these tragic events do not occur again.

How does the author use language to advance her point of view?
     One may feel as if the authors language helps describe the tragic events more in depth. For example, he uses the words “segregation”, “exploitation” giving detail on how the camps were organized. It also advances the authors point of view by telling what the Germans did. For example,they “exploited” woman into sexually activities with them .
