It's Real

Although there are not many who deny that the Holocaust happened, there are a few ignorant people who do choose to say it never happened. Maybe this helps them cope with the fact that such an atrocity occurred, or possibly they are just ignorant. Whatever the reason people must understand that what happened it very real, and to deny the events that occurred seems to me to be a slap in the face of not just the victims and survivors of the holocaust but the descendants of the survivors and victims as well as the entire Jewish population. Even though it  is such a grim and deplorable line of events it's a part of the history and struggle that they had to go through. It's like saying that African Americans didn't have to struggle for equality in America. It's like erasing history which we can't do. 

Germans can't and shouldn't deny what happened and Jewish people shouldn't be ashamed of what happened, because it is history and we can't change it we can only learn from the mistakes and try and prevent it by teaching tolerance, and keeping the lesson of the Holocaust alive; in other words we must never forget the events that took place so we can learn from the experience.
