6. Why are there so many books, movies, documentaries, etc. about the Holocaust? Why do we keep retelling this story?

I think that there are so many books, movies, documentaries, etc. about the Holocaust because this was an event that impacted history so much and was so incredibly terrible that people want to keep it alive and so that people won't forget about all of the horrible things that happened. Another reason for all of the information availible on the Holocaust is so that young people can learn about the Holocaust and really try to understand what hardships so many people had to endure through during this time. There has been information available for the past generation, information available for my generation, and there will be information on this event for generations to come. We keep retelling this story so that it really will stay alive in people's minds and so that they won't not remember this disasterous thing that happened. I'm so glad that people do continue to retell this story and to provide all of the resources that they do on the Holocaust so that I can know more about the times people went through back then and so that I can be even more thankful for how blessed we are to live in a society like we do today.

i agree that this was a really terrible part of history that affected many people greatly. It is a good thing that people keep retelling the story because then people can learn from it and learn more about the Holocaust at the same time.
