What the people went through during such hard times as the Holocaust is simply unimaginable. Innocent Jews, homosexuals, and gypsies were the victims targeted for the extreme suffering. Women’s hair was shaved off and used for mattresses and slippers, children had all their toys taken away, and men were forced as labor workers. Thousands of people were convinced to take showers while in reality the chambers expelled poisonous gas in very cramped conditions. Meanwhile, the Nazis would be watching the captured die in a matter of minutes through a peephole. Nazi control spread rapidly in Europe to parts of Africa. As a result of all the cruel actions by Adolf Hitler and his followers over 6 million people died. The Holocaust Museum has affected me so much, seeing all the struggles innocent people had to endure. Those who lost their lives will always be remembered. All that survived are extremely lucky. Whether they survived the Holocaust or not, each and every person was very brave and their battles through the Nazi invasion will never be forgotten.
