Other Noteworthy Findings

The History Unfolded project sought articles related to the events listed on the historical events page. However, sometimes citizen historians uncovered articles that were not relevant to an existing event but were still noteworthy, or they related to an event topic but were outside of the dates to check range for the module. The History Unfolded team allowed contributors to submit noteworthy articles they happen to find during the course of their research on the listed event topics.

The “Other Noteworthy Findings” submissions address the Nazi persecution of Jews and/or other victims during the period of 1933 to 1946. Articles were generally eligible for inclusion in this category if one or more is true:

• The article clearly demonstrates knowledge of and/or responses to the Holocaust on a national, local, or individual level in the United States.
• The article demonstrates knowledge of or responses by historically marginalized or understudied groups, such as Black Americans and youth/students.
• The article concerned an event or topic that fell outside of the scope of existing event modules but addresses similar themes, such as domestic Nazi, antisemitic, or fascist movements; responses to refugees; eugenics and sterilization of people with disabilities.
