In the video today, we do a deep dive into how exactly German schools teach about WWII and some rather unique things about all this from how most countries teach about their own historic wars.

✔ MY GOAL
As a history teacher of over 20 years, my goal is to provide context, explanations, and my all around insane recall abilities for all things history, popular culture, comic books, movies, and more... to add and enlarge other creations, as well as my viewer's experiences and understanding, with a chill and laid back personality.

I am not here to act or to play to an audience but be genuine AF in my breakdowns and reactions to things like; epic rap battles of history, oversimplified history videos, sam onella academy, bill wurtz, infographics, freshy kanal, all types of rap battles and the occasional geek/nerd reactions to things involving Star Wars, Marvel, DC, etc. but no, I am not a fan of Anime, sorry.

So if you enjoy history reactions and history breakdowns, I am your history teacher with a wicked and dark sense of humor!

According to this summary of German federal state curricular from the year 2005, schools are mandated to teach the Holocaust in a manner that highlights deeper connections to German society and the broader social and political context of the topic. Additionally, many federal states mandate that school classes have to visit a memorial site at least once during their time in school – most often those closest to wherever they are from.

The above linked summary shows that German school children will learn about the Holocaust for an average total of a bit more 20 history class hours in either school year 9 or 10, which is a lot of time to dedicate to one subject alone. To just give an impression to how German schools approach the Holocaust, the Bavarian state curriculum for the Gymnasium (Germany has several different "paths" when it comes to school education: Haupt- and Realschulen are meant to prepare to you for learning a certain trait while a diploma from Gymnasium enables you to go to a university):

Year 12/13: in the curricula for the basic and advanced classes a differentiated and in-depth dealing with the history of National socialism and the Holocaust is to be provided but also with its consequences for German society (among others: Racist policy as a consequence of ideology, questions of the reaction of the population, assessment of the contributions of Jews to German society until the Holocaust, discussions about collective guilt and continuation theses)
