No sophisticated discussion of the Holocaust, Israel, or even the diary of Anne Frank can avoid the complex issues surrounding the early Zionist movement. The United States support for Israel could also be controversial in class. However, the Holocaust was of such tremendous scale and historical relevance that awareness of anti-Semitism and Jewish history has increased dramatically throughout Western Europe and North America.
Comparing the experience of oppression, persecution, and torture of the Jews with the experience of oppression by other groups of people would offer the richest opportunities for students of history. History is about synthesis, analysis, and finding patterns among world cultures and in different periods of time. A multidisciplinary approach to history that incorporates some elements of personal psychology and sociology also enriches classroom discussions. This unit uses Anne Frank's Diary of a Young Girl to illustrate the multidisciplinary...
I would prefer to treat the diary not as a stand-alone source but rather to use it as one of many artifacts that lends insight into (a) anti-Semitism in the history of Europe (b) anti-Semitism outside of Europe (c) Jewish history (d) the triumphant spirit amid torture. The diary of Anne Frank simple offers too many opportunities for a rich and varied historical discussion to wantonly include it among course readings. At the same time, Diary of a Young Girl offers a singular account of the Holocaust and one that avoids any discussion of the gas chambers. Students of history cannot receive a sterilized version of the Holocaust and would need to read Diary of a Young Girl alongside key survivor manuscripts and other supporting materials.
Frank Lloyd Wright Design Theory Frank Lloyd Wright is one of the most well-known architects in United States history. The buildings he created have a distinctive flow, both inside and out, which either draws or distracts the viewer.

Resistance, Imprisonment & Forced Labor: a Slovene Student in World War II by Metod M. Milac is a memoir and primary source of his experience as a non-Jewish person during the Holocaust. Told through the perspective of Metod, his experiences between 1934 to 1950 allowed readers a glimpse of what it was like for non-Jewish victims experiencing Nazi occupation and encroachment in their homeland.

And there are always a few racists in any town. But I believe we have a great, open, accepting community.

In order to promote adequate milk production, pacifiers and supplementary liquids should be avoided for the first six months. An oversupply of milk can make feedings difficult for the mother and infant, and this should be remedied promptly. Offering only one breast per feeding and lengthening the feeding time can help, as can reducing milk volume before feedings by hand expressing. Breast engorgement can occur within the first few
Germans and Jews After WWI Germans and Jews After World War I In World War I, more than 12,000 Jews lost their lives fighting for Germany (Flannery, 43). They were a large part of the culture there, and had intermingled as much as they were able to. However, despite the way they were involved in so much of what was taking place in the country, they were also never really accepted. After
