Up standers and bystanders during the Holocaust

Over the past few years of my life I have been learning about the holocaust and the reasons that people could be so cruel.I have always been so interested in the subject. I have read so many books about the Holocaust, I have seen movies, and i am lucky to go to the Holocaust museum ( thank you Ms. Belkov). The holocaust was a horrific sequence of destruction to different types of the human race. 11 million people where murdered! If it wasn't for the people who hid the jews and helped some escape then that number would be higher. Their was also the bystanders, the people who watched and didn't do anything. But, you have to think about it in a different way. What if you have family you wouldn't want to risk it would you? People where afraid of taking action. The people didn't want to end up like the Jews. I wouldn't be able to put myself in that place, all because of the fear of when am I going to get caught, Are they going to find me? Their so little that one person can do but, if 10,40, 100 people take action then that is a difference.
