Research Question 3 for Survival in Auschwitz

Video testimonies are very different from written testimonies. When watching the videos, I saw the expressions and feeling run across their face as they told their story of being in camps. That is a big difference between video and written. You are allowed to see the expressions of the suppressed people. They're voices change as they get to different parts of the stories and you can tell them reliving it but they really want to tell what it was like living under those conditions and thinking you were going to die at the hands of fellow human beings.

Research Question 2 for Harlem [2]

The difference between civil rights and human rights are:


Civil rights are the rights that constitue free and equal citizenship.These rights include your personal, political, and economic rights. These rights can not be denied to you based on race, sex, religion, color, national origin, or disability. 


Human rights are rights that protect people everywhere from political, legal, and social abuses. An example of human rights is the right to choose your religion and to a fair trial.

Research Question 2 for I Will Bear Witness

The Nuremburg laws of 1935 restricted Jews of their rights and dehumanized them. The laws state that they can not marry someone who was an Aryan. Aryan is someone who has blond hair and blue eyes and is of germanic heritage. To protect the German people if someone wanted to get married they had to get a certificate called Certificate of Fitness to Marry. People fought among themselves about who was considered a Jew and who was not. Germans tried to settle it by handing out instructional sheets with pedigrees on them.
