What about it originated here in America? (I mean other then what we did to the native Americans) take a look at Johnson s Island (northern Ohio); Camp Douglas (Chicago); and Elmira (New York).
The official U.S. position on the treatment of Confederate prisoners of war during The War for Southern Independence would shock many modern Americans. The data, facts and statistics have been thoroughly eliminated from American history books. One must research the original documents to discover the horrible truth.
During the Civil War (1861-1865), the U.S. House of Representatives passed the following resolution: "Rebel prisoners in our hands are to be subjected to a treatment finding its parallels only in the conduct of savage tribes and resulting in the death of multitudes by the slow but designed process of starvation and by mortal diseases occasioned by insufficient and unhealthy food and wanton exposure of their persons."
One Yankee prison commander boasted that he had killed more Confederate soldiers than any Union officer on the front battle lines.
The story of Confederate prison camps, especially Andersonville, has been misrepresented. There was no deliberate attempt to mistreat northern POWs. The South asked the North to send doctors and medicine, and they tried to exchange the prisoners.
The North refused and finally the Confederacy offered the North cotton and gold as payment to take them without exchange. Again, the North refused to do so. They knew the Confederate States of America would be honor bound to try to feed and house the Union POWs and to do so would hamper the Confederate war effort.
God Bless You and Our Southern People.

Joanna, I would like to help but this will have to come from your heart. Think about such things as "what lesson did we learn, Why was it ignored, why did we close our eyes, why was it hidden from the newspapers, what can we do to insure this never happens again.
Think all those thoughts and you will come up with a great ending for your report.
Im hanging in there with you. Do a good job. I know you will.

While some people deny the holocaust (anti-holocaustals), the truth is that billions of people suffered and continue to suffer at the hands of Nazi Germany.

You should summarize what you your paper was about along with putting an opinion in it. Like my english teacher used to say, tell then what you're going to tell them, tell them, then tell them what you told them.
