Meet the Children

You are here

The Holocaust is a startling display of the horrifying consequences of dehumanization, even of children. Before their systemic extermination of six million Jews, the Nazis engineered massive hatred among the German people. Here you will find true accounts of some of the youngest victims of the Holocaust. Their stories stand as a reminder that inequality, discrimination, persecution, bigotry, and hate – when left unchallenged – can result in mass atrocity and unimaginable suffering for even the most innocent.
