Maus II

MAUS II

I think one of the questions that I would have liked to further discuss was the dictation of the Jews are mice rather than humans. I feel that it was little disrepectful to the many people who died during the halocaust the picture them just as animals. I feel that they should get some respect after the genocide occurred. I know his father and mother were part of the halocaust so he should feel a deep connection but by that depiction I do not feel that he gave them justice.

Another point that was made during the seminar was classifying polish as pigs. I felt that there was a huge bias during the discussion. I think that Jews would have done the same thing that polish did to keep themselves alive. I look at the example of his father trying to line up in different places to never be killed or bribing different people at the camp. I feel that they played the same role polish. I feel it was wrong to call them out.
