Lecture for Module 6: Coming to Terms with the Holocaust

My expectation: We have looked at Germany, Romania, the USSR and France and their responsibility in the Holocaust. You will gain a basic understanding about other governments and the Vatican in the Holocaust.

The questions I will ask for each country is
1. What background information is required?
2. What was the county’s record on anti-Semitism?
3. What was the country’s record in the Holocaust?
4. How did Jews survive?

Following the names of each country, I listed key historical figures and terms, as appropriate.
