In this lesson, students examine the differences between justice and fairness.  Using a “quiz-show” activity, students are encouraged to confront discrimination in the classroom and reflect upon their own prejudices. 

Students contrast three different accounts by Holocaust survivors. One survivor recounts his experience as a witness in a war crimes trial, another remembers one Nazi who chose to treat him fairly.  A third Holocaust survivor reflects upon revenge administered against perpetrators.
