Answer:
D. mentioning what happened to the St. Louis.
Explanation:
The Holocaust was one of the most heinous genocides in the history of the World. Under the German Nazi rule, the Jewish population was discriminated against and mass murdered just to ensure the 'survival' of the non-Jews. Hitler's act of capturing the Jews, torturing, 'working' them and killing them became one of history's worse crimes against humanity.
MS St. Louis was a passenger ship that sailed from Hamburg to Cuba carrying Jewish refugees with the hope of getting into Cuba and be saved from the mass murder in Germany. But once the ship reached Havana, the Cuban government refused them entry so they sailed to Florida. The United States also refused entry to the refugees citing immigration laws and restrictions as the main issue. So, the ship had to return to Europe where the ship's captain Captain Gustav Schröder pleaded and negotiated with various European nations to take the refugees in. Great Britain, Belgium, France, and Netherlands took them in.
Elie Weisel, a Holocaust survivor, mentioned this incident, the <u>refusal of the United States in taking the Jewish refugees and pointed out that the US failed to act on behalf of the Jews during the Second World War.</u>
