STAND UP TO STOP IT!
The book “Rose Blanche” by Robert Innocenti and Ian McKewan and also “The Boy In Striped Pyjamas”by John Boyne have created an atmosphere where readers would really want to know what will happen next throught these books. Both these books contain child protaginists who are Germans who are going through a dark time in Europe, World War two and for Jews the holocaust. But the protagonists, Rose Blanche from Rose Blanche and Bruno from The Boys In Striped Pyjamas have set their own ways to help rather then just stand their and wonder about the dreadful scenes outside their window.They are unaffected by the racism outside. And yes, they tried their best to help the people from the other side of the fence.
Both these books have a comman feature that makes a reader imagine the atmosphere that surrounds Europe. In the book Rose Blanche, Robert Innocenti and Ian McKewan have interpretated the World War II graphics and also added small paragraphs telling us what is going on in the picture as a short story.
Adolf Hitler, one of the worlds known German politicians and also the leader of the Nazi Party had stood out for all germans who are against the jews. Some of his posters illustrations shows us that he always stood out before the audience which were the people.
As we know that both of these stories are not really about wars but its trying to tell us how the jews were torchured using wepons and were killed later on that was with the use of a chemical poisonous gas called Zyklon B. By the end, mass number of jews were killed. About half of the population had decreased and their was threat for survival for the jews that where still hidding.
As a reader, the idea of being a bystander and speak out has made me interested to look forward into . In the book, Rose Blanche the graphics on one of the pages shows that one great group of people are standing in the corner, all huddled up. This shows that they are scared that if they do speeck out they might be in great trouble. And also in the same book, one of the pages have an image describing how the soldiers taking and filling their trucks with jews from their hidding places, which shows a great evidence of how the jews where hidding away from the germans. This also says that their were some very gentle germans who helped them to survive in this time where it might have been impossible for them to survive.
All people have the rights to stand before something they totally disagree with . It is a leagle action that I think is very important for people to know, or sometimes it can lead wrong things if they havent got commented from each member of Germany.
Being a bystander means to speak out for an action without participating in it .
One of the most memorable bystanders where these group of college students who started a movement called that “White Rose Movement”. On January 1934, the White Rose students haded out brochures, encouranging other students to rebel.
But unfortunetly they were caught and on the 23rd of febuary, 1943, 3 of the White Rose students where put to death as a leagal punishment. Those students where Sophie Scholl, Hans and Christopher Probst.
Another Courageous act about the mass killing of jews where the Villagers from La Chambon-Sur-Lignon who helped to shelter and provide with food to the jew family, couples and also individuals and provided and also with nesescary things.
This lesson about the the rights of humans, that will be with us for ages and ages no matter what happens, these sentences will be ruling us forever. Hopefully people must get a bit of sense about the holocaust and make the world into a peaceful country from NOW.
