1- What did you learn?
I learned about the restrictions the Jewish people had to face and the deprival of basic human rights. They also had no way of fighting back because of the laws being placed. Like how they got rid of any Jewish people with a job of power at first. I also found out a basic idea of the Jewish people's hardships. Especially during the 1940's when their basic rights were being taken away.
2- Why do you think this monument was built?
I think the monument was built to leave a reminder of the terrible things that happened. Especially since a law in 1945 was passed to essentially try and hide all of the evidence of any discrimination. It could also be an honor to those who had to experience the injustice and died during those times/
3- What did you notice about the number of laws passed in certain years?
At first there was a bunch of laws passed, then it slowed down, then back to full speed. The first laws weren't so extreme. They took away entertainment and other things that you don't need to live. Then, they started making the laws more extreme. Some examples include taking away their radios, having certain times to go shopping for food, and no milk. Those are just some of many more though.
4- Which restrictions do you think you would have the most trouble dealing with and why?
I think I would have trouble no attending school. No school would be hard to deal with because you don't really go out and make friends in a grocery store or something. You usually make and meet friends in school. Plus, it'd be hard to gather a bunch of your friends to do something organized like an actual baseball game or something. There is also the whole not being able to get an education thing. Which a lot of people, including myself, take for granted.
