RE: Holocaust lesson in Germany - What do we teach our kids at school?

Sure @amadeus true democracy comes from participation. Voting is a strong tool of democracy, but not remotely close enough to prevent a dictatorship. Participation to the political debate (not only online) and joining grass-root movements that allow every citizen's voice to be heard in a forum/square/meet up etc. That is what keep us alive and in charge of our own future. Direct democracy is possible and can and must run parallel to representative democracy.

Sort:  

There are enough nazi movies, and the "Zeitzeugen" are taped very well on this Channel:
Gedächtnis der Nation

I think there should rather be a movie about the Bellamy salute

and the US Japanese Internement Camps during WW2
