Research Journal Assignment #3

A. I started my search in google and yahoo and I found some interesting articles and links to other pages that relate to my topic.

B. I need to narrow down my topic to something specific. I have to talk about a certain word or phrase that deals with holocaust denial like revisionism. I still don't know exactly how I want to go about my topic but I know it is important to me that I keep the fact that such a horrible thing happened to all these people and some people believe that it was all a lie. I want to write using this topic to try and get people to believe that this was real and did happen. I just don't know how to write that in a question.

C. 1. Why do people try to deny the Holocause when there is actual proof that it happened? What was the reason people started to deny the Holocaust? Should the Holocaust be taught in school? When the revisionists see the actual evidence, will they then believe the tragedy that happened? Why should they not believe that it happened when there is evidence and living people who were there?
