In Response to Susan Neiman’s “To Resist Hitler and Survive”

I think that Germany is heading in the right direction. They have made huge advancements to show their sorrow towards all they have hurt. They have spent a tremendous amount of money to remember those they have lost during the Holocaust time period. I think it’s important to remember those who were lost as well as those who helped stop the terror. I don’t completely agree with the author who believes that Germany is recognizing the wrong people in such a dark time. He states that you need to focus on “what you have done to the world, not what the world has done to you.” But would that do the six million Jewish people who died in the Holocaust justice? How could you not recognize such a population of people for what the world has done to them? I do agree that the people responsible for the turnaround for the Holocaust should be recognized, but should be secondary to all whose lives were taken.
