Most well known Survivor story is a person name anne frank who survived the auschwitx death camp
the best known Auschwitz inmate was Anne Frank, who is remembered for her famous diary. But few people are aware that thousands of Jews, including Anne and her father, Otto Frank, "survived" Auschwitz.
The 15-year-old girl and her father were deported from the Netherlands to Auschwitz in September 1944. Several weeks later, in the face of the advancing Soviet army, Anne was evacuated from Auschwitz along with many other Jews to the Bergen-Belsen camp in western Germany, where she died of typhus in March 1945. While at Auschwitz, Otto Frank came down with typhus, and was sent to the camp hospital to recover. He was one of thousands of sick and feeble Jews who were left behind when the Germans abandoned the camp in January 1945, shortly before it was overrun by the Soviets. He died in Switzerland in 1980.
If the German policy had been to kill Anne Frank and her father, they would not have survived Auschwitz. Their fate, tragic though it was, cannot be reconciled with the familiar extermination story.
Many Jews died in the Holocaust. Yet some did survive. One survivor was Nelly S. Toll. She was in hiding during the holocaust. Her and her mom hid in a friend's home. They had a secret window that they hid in when someone came in the house that they did not know or when there was a knock on the door.

One of the best known survivors is Elie Wiesel.
Nazi's Holocaust emerged from a Persecutory Campaign initiated by Hitler's Nazi Germany against the ethnically undesirable people with the primary focus on the Jews. That persecutory campaign, during the war years, evolved and transformed into a distinctive genocidal component of WWII whose objective was the total annihilation of Hitler's perceived "undesirables" that were targeted for what they were rather than for what they did or believed in. The so-called "world Jewry," in Nazis' parlance, became Nazis' primary fixation towards total eradication. One of the most noticeable and dramatic action taken against the Jewish citizens of Germany and Austria during that time (that for many observers was also the first hint of what was yet to come) was the nationwide pogrom in the night of Nov. 9-10, 1938 known as the Kristallnacht or "The Night of Broken Glass" pogrom.
That tumultuous period of massive hostility towards Jews was the prelude of what would come (to be known as the Holocaust) and, it can be said to be characterized by oppressive, non-genocidal suffering and by sporadic, non-genocidal killings.
The problem is whether the perpetrators are willing to recognize another holocaust as it is forming and occurring. For example, many people point out that the 50 million abortions (just in the U.S.) qualifies as another holocaust. But the perceived benefit (casual sex without responsibility) is so seductive and addictive that the perpetrators would not seriously consider its status as a holocaust.
There are still some Holocaust survivors who are alive, like Lou Dunst for example. If you don't believe me then look him up or call his home phone. He is the sweetest old man I have ever met :) The Holocaust survivors go around the world and tell their stories. The Holocaust is also in all of our history books and online.
there were people from every (substantial) group who wrote stories.
just search WWII survivors stories in google, read the stories and wriite your assignment a bit like those stories
The Nazi regime itself took steps to hush up the holocaust. The extermination was supposed to be kept secret ... The extermination camps at Belzec and Treblinka were destroyed in 1943 ... When Soviet forces approached Auschwitz, the gas chambers were blown up and records destroyed - by the Nazis. A few mavericks and cranks denied the Holocaust in the 1960s but gained little attention. Holocaust denial on a large scale started in the 1970s. It went hand in hand with claims that Zionists had exaggerated the Holocaust in order to win sympathy internationally for the creation of the state of Israel in 1948. This made Holocaust denial popular in much of the Middle East.
There were many survivors of the Holocaust. Holocaust Survivors dot org site offers many stories and photos from actual survivors one can read. The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum have an abundance of information on their website as well.

obviously there was a range of experiences, but on the whole it was awful. Many survivors found the post war experience worse than that in the camps. People would return to communities that did not want them, to find their property gone, often people did not believe them when they told their stories. So many tried to move to America or Palestine.

Many Jewish people were too traumatized even to mention the Holocaust and what they had gone through, but when some of them heard people say that the holocaust never happened they overcame theri traumas and told their stories, or of the stories of their families.
