This resource book is Facing History and Ourselves' core publication encompassing our scope and sequence methodology. Based on the latest scholarship; Facing History and Ourselves: Holocaust and Human Behavior provides an interdisciplinary approach to citizenship education. Students move from thought to judgment to participation as they confront the moral questions inherent in a study of violence; racism; antisemitism and bigotry. The readings and activities explore the consequences of discrimination; racism; and antisemitism by holding up "the tarnished mirror of history" to one of the most violent times in world history—the 1930s and 1940s. As students read and reflect; they investigate the forces that undermined democracy in Germany; betrayed a generation of young people; and ultimately led to the Holocaust. In doing so; students discover that many of those forces threaten our own society today. The book then helps students discover how their decisions can make a positive difference in their community; nation and the world.
