2. First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out--
because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade
unionists, and I did not speak out--because I was not a
trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not
speak out--because I was not a Jew. Then they came for
me--and there was no one left to speak for me. --Martin
Niemoller

3. Raul Hilberg’s Stages of Mass Murder
1. Definition: Jews and other minorities are defined as the “other” through legalized
discrimination.
2. Isolation: Through the accumulation of hundreds of anti-Jewish laws, social practices,
residential living restrictions, job displacements, and property expropriation, Jews are
marginalized in German society.
3. Emigration: Jews are encouraged through laws and terror to leave German territory.
4. Ghettoization: Jews are forcibly removed to segregated sections of Eastern European
cities and are made to endure terrible living conditions.
5. Deportation: Jews are transported from ghettos to concentration and death camps.
6. Mass murder: Mass murder occurs through shooting, gassing, and confinement in labor
and death camps where Jews are overworked and/or murdered.
