Holocaust

I-Holocaust yayingumcimbi owawuqhuba phakathi kweminyaka yee-1930 ukuya kwiminyaka yee-1940, ngexesha leMfazwe Yehlabathi Yesibini, apho amaNazi phantsi kobunkokheli buka-Adolf Hitler atyhola, atshutshisa, kwaye abulala izigidi zabantu, ingakumbi amaJuda aseYurophu. Oku kwakuyinxalenye yenkqubo yabo ye-genocide eyaziwa ngokuba yi-Endlösung (isisombululo sokugqibela), eyayijolise ekupheliseni amaJuda.

Ukwenzeka kwe-Holocaust
AmaJuda, kunye nezinye iintlanga kunye namaqela anjengezigulana zengqondo, abantu abathandanayo ngokwesini esinye, kunye nabantu abangamaRoma (amaGypsy), baba phantsi kwenkqubo yokutshutshiswa. Babethunjwa, besetyenziswa njengezibulo labantwana abasebenzayo, okanye babulawa kwizikhululo zokufa ezifana ne-Auschwitz, Treblinka, nezinye. Ngokubanzi, kubalwa ukuba amaJuda angaphezulu kwezigidi ezintandathu ahamba kwesi sihlakano.

Imbali
I-Holocaust yaqala ngokusebenzisa umthetho ongathandabuzekiyo, i-Nuremberg Laws, ngonyaka ka-1935, owawususa amalungelo abantu abangengomaNazi. Ekuhambeni kwexesha, iNkqubo yeNazi yaqalisa ukuthutha abantu abangafunekiyo kwizikhululo zokuhlala ngaphambi kokuba bajoliswe ekutshatyalalisweni ngokupheleleyo.

Isikhumbuzo kunye nezifundo
I-Holocaust yasilela kumhlaba wokutsho ukuba amalungelo abantu kufuneka ahlonitshwe. Iindawo ezininzi emhlabeni zineendawo zokukhumbula ezi ntsholongwane, ezinje ngeYad Vashem e-Israel. Kwakhona, imfundo nge-Holocaust iyinxalenye ebalulekileyo yokufundisa izizukulwana ezizayo ukuze zikhusele amalungelo oluntu.
