Because school teaches us little. I’m Canadian and I learned precious little about our true history. We were taught that the natives and French were friends 🙄😡. I learned the true reality after high school.

As a former history teacher, I wanted to thank you for all your wonderful presentations you do for us here on your channel. You are a natural educator! As to the horrors of medical experimentation, my late grandfather was in 42nd Rainbow Division during World War II. They and the 7th Army were the liberators the Dachau concentration camp. The sights he and the other men observed there were beyond human imagination. He looked German (whitish blonde hair and icy blue eyes even though he was Scottish), and had learned the language. He was often used to gain access to places the other soldiers could not easily go. He passed away when I was 12 and so I never got to learn firsthand of his personal experiences there as I was deemed to young to hear such atrocities (and rightly so). Again, thank you for your accurate depiction of these events even though they are hard for anyone with a kind heart to hear. These lessons are necessary nonetheless.

The rise of anti Semitic language and feelings here in the states scares me so much. Please God never again!!!

Guess who else was another famous eugenicist? An American woman by the name of Margaret Sanger. She started the “negro project.” She called black people weeds that needed to be cut down and gotten rid of. Guess what else she was a huge proponent of. Abortions. Her clinics were the beginnings of Planned Parenthood. She made sure that they were put primarily in “communities of color.” She convinced black women and other women of color and poor white women that abortion was their way out of poverty. You can’t stop having sex, so just kill your babies instead. If you have too many or if you’re single and poor and can’t afford to raise a child, just get rid of it. It’s just a clump of cells after all. It’s a fetus, not a baby. It’s your right. It’s your body, your choice. Sound familiar? But it was mainly started to get rid of those undesirable black children. And now you have those same women marching in the streets to fight for their right to kill their own babies in the wombs of their own mothers. She was also a staunch supporter and member of the democrat party and one of the first female member of the KKK, but I repeat myself. She was an awful evil woman and unfortunately her legacy lives on. Joseph Mengele’s legacy lived on through Margaret Sanger and now Margaret Sanger’s legacy lives on through the democrat party and Planned Parenthood. 70 million babies have been murdered in the wombs of their own mother’s since 1973. More than half of those babies have been black. I’d say that Margaret Sanger’s “negro project” has been a success. 😢

[@barbleigh5571]

Good job Stephanie. Of course this made me remember that the foundation of eugenics was Darwinism. An old jewish lady that lived in my neighborhood when I was a child always baked wonderful treats for us. One day she was passing out cookies and asked me if I had started school yet. I said yes and she looked me straight in the eyes and said, "They will try and teach you that you are decended from monkies and apes. Don't you believe it! You are made in the image of God". That stuck with me my whole life. She had survived the holocaust.

[@Dontcarebear33]

As the mother of a child with autism, this video gives me so many chills, because my son would have been one of those people that were also deemed “unworthy of life”.

[@giabarrone7422]

I thought I hated history all throughout school because it was always presented as series of names and dates to memorize, and any context was generally glossed over. The interesting tidbits that made historical figures seem human were intentionally left out. Then the internet came to be, and I could access complete and unbiased accounts of history from international journalists and historians. Now I am obsessed. There is an amazing documentary on Versailles that pushes all the dirty details into the light. I learned far more from that one KZbin video, than I did from AP European history, and a guided tour of the palace. What/how we are teaching children in schools is criminal.

I‘m from Germany. I work with special needs children and young adults and in collage we learned a lot about eugenics and euthanasia it was horrible. Children and adults with special needs were used for Experiments and were killed. They were taken away from their family’s and weeks later the family’s got a notification about the death of their loved once, “natural death” of course. We had to watch a documentary “Ärzte unterm hakenkreuz” (difficult to translate 😅) it was horrible and disgusting that people could do something this horrible to other people especially children.

[@Larish10]

@@StephanieHarlowe She also lost both her parents during the Holocaust in one of the death marches. They probably died from exposure, starvation and who knows what else. Maybe they were shot for not keeping up, or just for "fun" cause they had guns and they could. She had to keep walking in the freezing cold, or they would've shot her. I often wonder about my great-grandparents. Where they ever properly buried? probably not. She never had a marked grave to come back to. They died in the middle of a torturous walk from one country to another in the freezing cold, by foot and with no proper clothing or food. Can you imagine watching your parents die before your eyes and having to leave them like that to survive? Who knows what roads, houses, shops or forests are there now, without anyone knowing about all the people buried underneath, killed just because of their religion. I've heard so many stories from Holocaust survivors themselves in my country, but it's still so difficult to comprehend that such methodical, thought out plan to wipe out Jews, disabled, homosexuals and Romani actually happened. That such horrible people actually lived. That no one did anything for so freaking long. If only Social Media was a thing back then... And the sad thing is, there are still people who think that way. Antisemitism still exists. Racism still exists. There are people who deny the Holocaust, and one day, there will be no more Holocaust survivors to tell their story, to show their arm with a number tattooed on it, and it's up to me and hopefully my future children (and every decent person imo, especially if their ancestors survived or were murdered during that awful dark time) to keep telling all those horrific tales, so people will know the TRUTH, and will never ever ever forget.

Likes are for sharing your story, not because I think what happened was a good thing. Just wanted to clarify!! Thank you for sharing your grandmother's story.

[@Larish10]

@@inuchan74 I totally understand, don't worry. :) She told me a lot of stories, so did my mom. It's no wonder so many jokes about Jewish moms are about being over-protective and food obsessed. It all comes back to the times where babies were killed in front of their parents, sometimes in their mother or father's arms and people didn't know when they'll eat again. My grandma absolutely HATED to throw away food. she couldn't stand it. She was the strongest, funniest, most loving, caring, and compassionate person I ever knew. Both she and my mom, may they both rest in Heaven. It pained her to see a grandchild with the smallest band-aid on our finger or the slightest cough. She wanted to take away even our smallest insignificant pain or discomfort, even though she went through hell and knew what true pain is. She was proud to be Jewish and was happy to immigrate to Israel, and never thought she was better than anyone else because of her skin color, nationality, the God she believed in or anything else. She did absolutely anything for her kids and grandchildren and always wanted us to be safe. (sorry for the super long comments...I'm crying over here talking about this)

Just because you don't learn something in school doesn't mean that you can't do you own research. I was fortunate to have a history teacher that encouraged me to read,study and love history.

[@imnida1731]

Had to take a 'History of the Industrial Revolution' class in college. Hated it, no way do I have any interest in anything remotely similar. One night was hanging out w/my boyfriend & we went to a friend of his' house. This dude was also taking the class, but w/a different 'textbook' that was more like a nonfiction novel. I swear I read the whole book in 8hrs overnight while my bf & his friend smoked pot. I LOVED it. Wrote my final essay based on what I'd learned in the 'novel-book,' the prof. thought I was a genius that actually gave a f__k. NO. A good book or a good teacher makes a world of difference. And you are a good teacher.

Since Hitler said supposedly, "who remembers the Armenians?" I think it is really important to link the two genocides. A genocides of the 20th century series, while morbid sounding, would be really educational. So many people trivialize genocide, you could provide a great service to the world.
