Schindler
Throughout history characters have been characterized as one thing but later on realize that they are not following their heart. They feel as if that they must do as others do to fit in but its not what they truly want to do. Oscar schindler was one of these people, he was a member of the Nazi party but he was not always for the Nazi’s. He owned a factory a factory that produced goods for the war. The workers of this factory were of coarse Jewish and they were people who have had training or past experiences in that field. Oscar is first characterized as a mean man who persecutes and kill Jew just because they are simply Jewish but later realizes that what he is doing is wrong. Schindler was a peaceful quite man in his younger years and his life story is pretty interesting. Oscar shchindler has been described as a cynical, greedy exploiter of slave workers during the Second World War, a black-marketer, gambler, and member of the Nazi party eternally on the lookout for profit, alcoholic playboy and shameless womanizer of the worst sort.In the beginning of the 1960s, this same Oscar Schindler was honored in Israel and declared "
Righteous" and invited to plant a tree in The Avenue of the Righteous, which leads to the Yad Vashem Museum in Jerusalem. A memorial in the Park of Heroes praises him as the Savior of more than 1,200 Jews! Now without employment, Schindler joined the Nazi party, as did many others at that time. It was opportune, when one remembers that the first German divisions invaded Czechoslovakia in 1939. Maybe because he had seen possibilities, which the war brought in its wake, he followed on the heels of the SS when the Germans invaded Poland. Rake - and Savior ... Who was this Oscar Schindler who started by earning millions of German marks through exploitation of slave workers and ended by spending his last pfennig and risking his life to save "his" 1,200 Schindler Jews from Hitler’s death camps? Many people may still look at Oscar schindler as a follower of Hitler and it is true he was a follower of Hitler but u have to give the man credit for taken a stand and doing his own thing and standing up for what he thinks is right. The death total of the Jews may have been so much larger if schindler did not make his efforts to save
