Holocaust Diaries and Testimonies

Students were asked to research the experience of one Jewish youth during the Holocaust and to contextualize that experience in terms of social, political, economic, religious and/or cultural conditions at the time. They were further asked to reflect on how learning about this person's experiences would influence their own attitudes and behaviors.
