Inevitability of the Holocaust PART II
Course HS251683:
Inevitability of the Holocaust PART II
This course will highlight key Nazi meetings and events that should have been given more attention by the rest of the world and might have averted both World War II and the Holocaust. Students will become familiar with how the German military leaders organized a resistance movement and were hours away from overthrowing the regime in September 1938 . . . and why that did not happen. The instructor will discuss the importance of the Evian Conference, the Kindertransport, the Rublee-Wohlthat Agreement, and Stalin’s attempts to form a non-aggression pact with England that failed and resulted in the Ribbentrop-Molotov Pact. The relevance of Fascism versus Bolshevism will be discussed. Students will learn how the Nazis’ intractable concepts led to one of the greatest catastrophes in history: the Holocaust. Finally, the course will compare and contrast Hitler to Putin and the importance of the war in Ukraine. It will explore the current rise of anti-Semitism around the world and how being unfamiliar with history has mistakenly separated anti-Zionism from anti-Semitism when they are one and the same.
