Re: Jewish students attacked at Auschwitz

I dont even know where to start for my reply to this thread. Honestly all i can say is that reading this news story makes me sad and at the same time makes me all the more convicted to several causes that I've been active in.
Racism is something that lives in all of us weither or not we want to admit it or not. Its something that everyone must work within themselves to end. Its a horrible plauge that man kind has been dealing with ever since the beginning of time. Education is the only cure for it, ignorance is the main cause of it. Not that i am saying that all racists are ignorant, infact the truth is that most are far from it.
I disagree with what Greg said however about a large portion of the world still thinking that Hitler was right. I feel that only a small portion of the world agrees with Hitler, the majority of the people in the world see he was a fanatical madman, who really only cared about himself.
I could go on and on about this subject...but instead i'll post some links for you guys.

Like i said education is the only way to battle back against racism, so check some of those links out and educate yourself
