Connection Across Time

Perhaps the most infamous event of World War II, the Holocaust, was a mass genocide of Jews and other "inferior" people (those with disabilities or homosexuals), by the Nazis. Hitler used mass extermination in an insane attempt to rid the world of all people but Aryans, the "pure-bloods." Millions of innocent people were killed during the 1930s and 40s. Although it is hard to believe, genocide is still seen in our "modern" world. Currently in Darfur, Sudan, Non-Arabs are being hunted down and killed by Jangaweed troops, proving that history repeats itself. Over 700,000 have been killed so far, with many more innocent people dying every day.
