In this Project, I used a total of seven sources. I used two primary sources, four secondary sources, and one book source
The primary and secondary sources are all things I found online that provide wonderful insight on what was going on with the German citizens during the Holocaust. The book I used is a fiction book that I have already read, but it still provides useful information.
Primary Sources:
Macdonald, Fiona. BBC, 23 Jan. 2018, www.bbc.com/culture/article/20180123-how-the-children-of-nazi-germany-remember-world-war-two.
This is a primary source, because it is a first hand account from children of Nazis. In the article children of Nazis tell stories of what their life was like. It provides nice information on what these peoples childhoods were like in Nazi Germany
Lay, Robert. "The Pestilential Miasma of the World." Calvin University, 1944, research.calvin.edu/german-propaganda-archive/pesthauch.htm.
This is a book that was written by a Nazi that depicted Jews in a really nasty way. It is a good example of the Anti-Semitism that was going on in Nazi Germany to manipulate the citizens.
