Hitler's Anti-semitism / Anti-jew | Social Studies

Hello everyone! This past week in Social Studies, we have been learning about the holocaust, the great depression and we have now started on the topic of why Hitler despised the Jews ( anti-semitism )

 “The Jews were responsible for bringing negroes into the Rhineland with the ultimate idea of bastardising (lowering the quality of) the white race which they hate and thus lowering its cultural and political level so that the Jew might dominate.”

Hitler has said these things as to his belief that the white race is the most superior. His hatred and racism against the Jews have also led him to manipulate the public view of the Jewish race. He has manipulated the people into believing that the Jews are the ones to blame, the people believed these lies without having any knowledge or truthful information of how and what the Jewish race actually is.

Starfish Poem | Social Studies

THE STARFISH POEM
Once upon a time, there was a wise man 
who used to go to the ocean 
to do his writing. 
He had a habit of walking 
on the beach 
before he began his work. 
One day he was walking along 
the shore. 
As he looked down the beach, 
he saw a human 
figure moving like a dancer. 
He smiled to himself to think 
of someone who would 
dance to the day. 
So he began to walk faster 
to catch up. 
As he got closer, he saw 
that it was a young man 
and the young man wasn't dancing, 
but instead, he was reaching 
down to the shore, 
picking up something
and very gently throwing it 
into the ocean. 
As he got closer he called out, 
"Good morning! What are you doing?" 
The young man paused, 
looked up and replied, 
"Throwing starfish in the ocean." 
"I guess I should have asked, 
why are you throwing starfish in the ocean?" 
"The sun is up and the tide is going out. 
And if I don't throw them in they'll die." 
"But, young man, don't you realize that 
there are miles and miles of beach 
and starfish all along it. 
You can't possibly make a difference!" 
The young man listened politely. 
Then bent down, picked up another starfish 
and threw it into the sea, 
past the breaking waves and said- 
"It made a difference for that one."

The main message of this poem
- A single person can make such a significant change to our environment and if people start making small differences in their everyday life they would be helping more and more. other people might doubt that just throwing a single piece of rubbish won't make a difference but if more people started doing it, those small changes can turn into something big.
