The Salem Witch Trials and The Holocaust were very similar in many ways even though they happened at different times. They both had a lot of killing but yet the Holocaust had even more killings than the Salem Witch Trials. The Salem Witch Trials in 1692 it was a dark time in American history (Salem Witch Trials). Over 200 people were accused of doing witchcraft and it started because of some teenage girls (Salem Witch Trials).
The Salem Witch Trials is still alive today ,but just in a different way in Trump’s mind. Should we be worried? Even though the country is founded on freedom of religion ,how is this ban legal to our government. From the witch trials to Trump this method has stayed the same, but is now affecting countries and not just a town. Is Trump finding bad guys in the same way that the witch trials did in 1692?
“Fairness is not an attitude. It’s a professional skill that must be developed and exercised”- Britt Hume. Fair trials are something that doesn't happen often, but in the Slager trials and the Brown trials, there is truly no such thing as a fair trial. The Michael Brown trial was when Brown, a black young adult, was unarmed and was shot by a white male Ferguson police officer. The police officer was not charged with any crime relating to the shooting of Michael Brown.

On August 6, 1945, the first of two atomic bombs was dropped on Japan, sparking the start of what is now known as the Cold War. Two large military powers, the Soviet communists and the United States of America, pitted their wits and defense against each other, using any means necessary to find cracks in the others’ defenses. Three days later, the second atom bomb was dropped on Nagasaki, Japan, which shook the world with its deafening death toll. The world immediately took up arms in the following years, sparking some of the most controversial years in history. Suspicion turned brothers against sisters, neighbors against neighbors, and caused many lives to be ruined.

Millions of people through history have been treated unfairly. During WWII, the Holocaust was one of the greatest atrocities of all time. People were also wrongly accused and punished during the witch trials in Salem that occurred during the 1600s. these two events have differences but they also have similarities as well.
With a jury that cares about everything but the trial, how is the defendant suppose to be given a fair trial? He isn’t. The last piece of evidence is cartoon 3, where a dog is being judged by his natural enemies, feline (Document E). These ‘jurors’ all hate the dog and no matter what the evidence is, the dog will be guilty. It applies to our system with the notion that a suspect is hated by jurors because the media accuses them of being guilty before the trial begins.
Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson was one of the most influential and intelligent Americans to have ever sat on the bench. His service to America is often overlooked and he deserves the most highly regarded respect. Justice Robert Jackson had a humble and modest beginning. Justice Jackson did not attend law school and passed the bar at the age of twenty-one. He practiced law for many years before being appointed a position in Washington D.C.
The Holocaust. A horrific crime that will live forever in infamy. More so than December 7, 1941, for it was not one day, one month, or even one year. It was far worse. It was years of built up racist hate and blind confusion unleashed in a devastating manner.
Lastly, the Nuremberg trials was one of the biggest events to occur toward Albert Speer. It is because of his work with the Nazi Party and his contribution to the outcome of war, was he being held accountable for his actions. However, through devious remarks and claims that he was unaware of such actions being taken place under his authority, he was sentenced to a lighter penalty than what his fellow collages. Speer was held accountable for four crimes; including the common plan or conspiracy to accomplish… a war aggression, crimes against peace, war crimes and crimes against humanity. However, out of the four crimes, ‘war crimes’ and ‘crimes against humanity’ were the two that would have been the biggest concern for Speer.
Although millions were murdered during the Holocaust, many war criminals were brought to trial and convicted for their crimes (Nuremburg Trials). The Nuremberg trials were a series of thirteen trials carried in Nuremberg, Germany, between 1945 and 1949.
The Impact of the Nuremberg Trials Noah Matt Albia High School English 10 Mrs. Lawson 29 March 2023 Title The Holocaust was one of the most decisive times in human history, but oftentimes its aftermath is severely overshadowed.

Regardless of what is fair and what is not, the defendant has rights during trial. One of those rights under the 5th Amendment is the right against self incrimination and according to Winegar, the 6th Amendment provides a defendant the ability to testify on one’s behalf (2013). However, lack of testimony from a defendant can cause an interference with the jury or cloud their judgement because they were not previewed to what the defendant has to say. According to Hall, the jury is instructed not to guess or assume guilt because the defendant does not put on a defense.
Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines Fascism as "a political philosophy, movement, or regime (as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition." Basically what this breaks down to, also according to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, although for students, Fascism is "a political system headed by a dictator in which the government controls business and labor and opposition, is not permitted." The Liberals continuously call the Conservatives, Fascists, but more often than not, in doing so, they themselves are being Fascists. For example, yesterday was a day set aside for the Conservatives to gather and show their support for President Trump. Plainly many Liberals protested this support because they cannot stand the fact that anyone wants to support our President.
