assignment 8
What got my attention was how good Hilter would talk and easy he got all Germans. That was a brilliant idea Hitler had of how to blame just one race and not all races. The thing is that back then people were more closed mined, but now were open mind. Yeah there might be new versions of Nazis like KKK and the Noe-Nazis, but like I said they are closed minded.
