Google the Holocaust Museum in Washington DC. Also the Simon Weisenthal Center. Most Holocaust do not like to talk about their experiences, so people have made oral histories before these people all die. There are a lot of good resources. Also read "Night" by Elie Wiesel; it's a first-person account of the Holocaust.

Some years ago I was doing some work for a couple in the Washington DC area ... as I took my lunch break the women of the house sat down at her kitchen table to eat her lunch and invited me to eat with her.
We sat there talking... I don't remember how the subject of the Holocaust came up... she excused herself went to a closet and returned with the garment she was wearing when the camp was liberated. It was black & white striped "dress" with a yellow star.
It was strange to sit there realizing how close to death she came....
We say, "Never Again" but we don't seem to be able to stop the various genocides across the globe.
read "The Diary of Anne Frank"... there are some powerful accounts of the Warsaw Ghetto... you shouldn't have much problem finding materials

Highly recommend the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington D.C.
