Persecution of the Jews
The process and hardship that the Jews had gone through from 1933-9 is horrific. To start with such basic ways through the Nuremberg Laws to separate Jews as the bane of Germany as inferiors displays the unbelievable evil that people can show. With each passing year, it would only get harder on the Jews with stricter laws making Germany inhabitable as a human being for Jews. Reading The Persecution of the Jews was much like reading Oedipus Rex with the dramatic irony. You feel as you wish you could just tell them to get out of Germany and even Europe before things get worse, but even then the emmigrating process was only to those who had proof of employment and could afford it. It is tragic to see that many were trapped and hopeless only to face persecution.

It is hard to read when you know what it is all leading to. I just wanted to think of a way to help them, but it's already happened.
