Threading Fiction and History

The inhumanity and discrimination of the Holocaust is shown by literal and figurative representations. As shown in all three visual representations of the Holocaust and the nature of the whole event, the scarring event in history was jam packed and dilated with a lack of connection between others because of the non-significant and small details that presented themselves to the foreign eye. In the project "What Does Humanity Look like?", the overall representation of humanity was connection through emotion and assisting others when they need it most. This is the pure essence of humanity, it is what brings people together and persuades them to put aside their differences and grasp that loving essence. The Holocaust was short of just that spirit of humanity. In the veiled book, Terrible Things, each group of animals was taken away according to their differences. This completely manifests the terrible nature of inhumanity by itself, and the constant lack of that essence needed in order to obtain humanity. The Holocaust itself showed how it needed that essence. Hitler and the Nazis both discriminated against the differences of others, committing genocide because of the simple and almost unseen differences.
