Holocaust Education Series Part 1: Seeds of Hatred In this first episode of our three-part Holocaust Education Month series, we examine the historical forces that made the Holocaust possible. Starting with shocking statistics about gaps in Canadian Holocaust knowledge, we trace antisemitism from medieval Europe through the Nazi rise to power in 1933. Learn how Hitler exploited democracy through violence and intimidation, how the SA (Stormtroopers) terrorized opponents, and how the Nuremberg Laws stripped Jews of citizenship. We examine Kristallnacht's violence and explore the tragic stories of the SS St. Louis and MV Struma—ships full of Jewish refugees turned away by Canada, the United States, and other nations. Understanding how the Holocaust began is essential to ensuring it never happens again. Runtime: 45-50 minutes | Content Warning: Discusses historical persecution and violence Each episode in this series was researched and produced by Mr Maillet, a High School History Teacher. He apologizes in advance for any mispronunciation of names and terms in foreign languages.
