Film Lesson Night and Fog

This film was more powerful then Schindler's list because the graphics in this film were expressed stronger and the way they showed some of they bodies were horrifying. The only reason it was similar was because of all the dead bodies and how they would cut of the womens hair to use it as cloth to make clothing. Night and fog showed it more clearly and with more detail then Schindler's list this is why i think night and fog is more teriffying.

Film Lesson Schindler's List

The most powerful scene was when in the labor camp when the women was just trying to help and she had got shot and killed. The scene when they were getting a physical and then all the little kids were being taken so that they can kill them was also a bad scene because of how the mothers were suffering and they would just be thrown to the ground when they attempted to get there children, there were a good handful of kids that were not in the truck leaving so mothers began to worry more because they new that they were hiding. The worst scene was when they were digging out all the bodies again and burning them the ashes were falling like snow on cars all over people. i would not forget how all the dead bodies looked so skinny with no meat all bony and how they would throw the bodies around like it was a toy.

Mustafa Kemal (Ataturk) and the Modernization of Turkey

Ataturk made them wear dresses because it was worthy and appropriate for there nation. He also made all of them wear shoes or boots. Trousers on there legs were also supposed to be worn as well as a shirt and tie , jacket and waist coat. The most important to wear was a cover with a grim. Ataturk changed there ways of dressing and point of view in many ways. They still had there religion but ataturk wanted them to change there ways of dressing so he changed all schools to a secular school instead of a religious school.

Secular - Non Religious

Film Lesson: "Gandhi"

Gandhi helped his Indian nation get its independence by standing up for themselves not through violence but through pride and bravery for there country. The Indians would get beaten and sometimes killed but Gandhi was so sure at the end all of that hurt and sadness it would pay off.
Gandhi was arrested multiple times for civil disobedience, Gandhi would never argue or fight with them no matter what situation. There was a point when the Indians could not take it anymore and they fought back, Gandhi did not agree with fighting back so Gandhi started fasting until they all noticed how Gandhi wanted to get his independence was not through violence.

Somethings Gandhi did was different marches, he even made his own clothing. The indians had a salt march and made there own salt by the beach.
