"The Wave" is an excellent movie. It can be viewed to demonstrate how quickly some people are willing to relinquish their individuality and rights, for the power inherent in the larger group. Sadly, it also brings to mind the mentality of the gang, something I seem to be hearing more and more about.
In a California high school class, Social Studies Teacher Mr Ross, can not provide an answer when one of his students asks, “How could this happen?” during a lesson on the Holocaust. Ross devises an experiment that has to be cut short as the class quickly learns how such a thing as the Holocaust could happen, even in 1967. This is a true and scary story. Lesson plans are provided by a Teachers Guide to the Holocaust.
