Shorin 1 Stephanie Shorin Sparrow History 9 20 September 2013 Source Annotations Primary Sources: Hitlers Propaganda Machine.

Nelson, Roger B. New York Times. June 1933. Gale World History in Context. Web. 30 Sept. 2013. I think that this source will be a helpful one because it is a primary source, and it has information on why the Jewish people were blamed for the bad economic conditions. It tells about what kind of propaganda was used to promote Hitlers agenda (which I havent seen much about yet). This source also includes the significance of the Nazi Partys propaganda.

Organized Will of the Nation. Schweitzer, Hans. Terrorism: Essential Primary Sources, 2006. Gale Opposing Viewpoints in Context. Web. 30 Sept. 2013. This source will come in handy because it has examples of the blame placed on the Jews and the Communists. It also goes into depth on Hitlers past, and how he became so powerful. This article explains how the Nazi Party exploited Germanys insecurities.

The Responsibility to Protect. United Nations. Office of the Special Advisor on the Prevention of Genocide. 2013. 23 Oct. 2013. This document talks about the Responsibility to Protect. It says that The State carries the primary responsibility for protecting populations from genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity and ethnic cleansing, and their incitement. This article will help immensely with the rights section of my project.

Shorin 2 Secondary Sources: "Adolf Hitler." Britannica School. Encyclopdia Britannica, Inc., 2013. Web. 23 Oct. 2013. This source will be helpful because it has a section on Hitlers Place in History. This will be an interesting and information filled section to read, so I think it will come in handy. It also explains more about his years as the dictator of Germany.

Darwinism and the Nazi race Holocaust. Bergman, Jerry. Creation Ex Nihilo Technical Journal 13(2):101111. 1999. Temcat.com. Web. 9 Oct. 2013. This source will be valuable because it shows how Nazism was influenced by Darwinism. Darwin came up with the theory survival of the fittest, so I can already see how Nazism could be influenced by it. This source will provide information on why Hitler saw his race as superior.

"Elie Wiesel." People of the Holocaust. Gale, 1998. World History In Context. Web. 5 Nov. 2013. This source is useful because Elie Wiesel is a holocaust survivor. Also, it has content on the origins of WWII. Elie Wiesel has spoken out on why the Holocaust was wrong, so I think it would be valuable if I read more about him.

"Hitler, Adolf (18891945)." Europe Since 1914: Encyclopedia of the Age of War and Reconstruction. Ed. John Merriman and Jay Winter. Vol. 3. Detroit: Charles Scribner's Sons, 2006. 1324-1331. World History In Context. Web. 20 Oct. 2013. This source look promising because it has information on the genocide of the Jewish people. It also has some good information about WWII. The article explains what Hitler did and thought about when he was in power. Hitlers Final Solution. Opposing Viewpoints. Gale Cenage Learning. 2007. Web. 26 Sept. 2013. This source has a section on the Decision for Mass Murder and talks about the many details of Hitlers Final Solution. In another part of this article, it investigates the murder

Shorin 3 of people deemed handicapped. I think that this part could be useful when I am creating my project, because I wasnt aware that the Nazis would kill handicapped people as well. It will definitely help with the rights and responsibilities part of the project.

Holocaust. Encyclopedia Brittanica. Brittanica Digital Learning. 2013. Web. 26 Sept. 2013. This source will be helpful, because it talks about the origin of the Holocaust and Nazi aniti-semitism. It also goes into detail about the non-Jewish victims of Nazism. I believe this is important because there were many other people that were affected by Nazism.

"Holocaust: The Events." Berenbaum, Michael. Encyclopaedia Judaica. Ed. Michael Berenbaum and Fred Skolnik. 2nd ed. Vol. 9. Detroit: Macmillan Reference USA, 2007. 325343. World History In Context. Web. 5 Nov. 2013. This source has information on Nazi Racism, which I find important. It also has information on Hitlers ascent to power, which is very important to know about, because if he had never had risen to power, the genocide would have never happened. The document also includes facts about what life was like for Jews.

"Nazi Germany." Gale Encyclopedia of World History: Governments. Vol. 1. Detroit: Gale, 2008. World History In Context. Web. 26 Sept. 2013. This source is good for mainly background material on Nazi Germany. It does talk about some major events, and the aftermath of the events, which will be helpful. It has a little bit of information on the government structure of Germany, which I think is important because Germany would have been a very different place if it was a democracy instead of a dictatorship.

"Race." Encyclopdia Britannica. Encyclopdia Britannica Online. Encyclopdia Britannica Inc., 2013. Web. 20 Oct. 2013. This source may be helpful because it explains why

Shorin 4 race became a reason to justify superiority. It also goes into depth on Darwinism and the survival of the fittest. The article also explains why theories about race inferiorities are wrong.

"Social Darwinism." Weikart, Richard .Encyclopedia of Science, Technology, and Ethics. Ed. Carl Mitcham. Vol. 4. Detroit: Macmillan Reference USA, 2005. 1800-1804. World History In Context. Web. 5 Nov. 2013. This would be a useful article because it discusses Darwin and Ernst Haeckel. It explains how Darwins theories were applied to societies. In the article, it mentions that Haeckel believed These races ... were in a competitive conflict that would only end with the extermination of the least fit races.

Universal Declaration of Human Rights. United Nations (1948). UN.org. 2013. 22 Oct. 2013. This source lists the universal human rights. It shows why Germany was inhumane when they committed crimes against some of their people and others. The declaration of human rights was drafted in response to WWII. Victims of the Nazi Era: Nazi Racial Ideology. United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. June 2013. Holocaust Encyclopedia. Web. 9 Oct. 2013. I think this source will be helpful because it reveals information about why Nazis believed it was right to eliminate Jewish people. It also tells about Hitlers ideology of race. This source has information that I have not yet encountered, so I think it will be very informative.
