        Holocaust Response

   The Holocaust was just history to me.  I was never sure how, when or why it happened but I knew that it did.  I knew that six million Jews were murdered but I didn't know what the realities of these murders were.  It wasn't until I witnessed Mr. Maddens presentation that my perspectives about this event changes.  Everything I heard was my worst nightmare and I can't believe that millions of Jews had suffered through it.  How Hitler tried to kill off and entire race?  He's a horrible man. I can't even begin to imagine the pain the Jewish survivors suffered after the war.  Overall the presentation was worthwhile and other CHS students should be able to experience this in the future.
