What you will come away with could never be found in just reading and studying about the Holocaust. This experiential learning will transform your attitudes, change your lives, and make you better people.

I have to say, I know quite a bit more than I knew 30 minutes ago.What stopped me is when Group 2 wrote that "American's are shielded from the racial bias of their history"... Since I've never been on this trip, I found it interesting that the German citizens of this region are reminded every day of their country's past. How horrible for them! Imagine we were in constant reminder of the crimes in America's past? But that's exactly it... maybe we should be reminded more often. Maybe that would change our country for the better. Have these reminders changed the German mindset? Do you have the opportunity to speak to average German citizens to hear their thoughts and opinions? <br /><br />Your thoughts gave me a great deal to think about....

We are not barbarians” I was once again shock how narrow minded and ludacris these people were. What WERE they thinking?? The photos of the train station are always very striking...to see the various locales and the vast number of victims that were hauled off...unknowing their fate...so sad. I look forward to following your Blog, as I do every year. Just be sure to take in all this important information so you can go forth and spread these valuable lessons when you return.
