You can find a wealth of information on this topic at the site for the US Holocaust Memorial Museum based in Washington, DC by entering the keyword holocaust into your search engine. Many folks think this is strictly a Jewish museum, and although the Jews were by far the largest group murdered by the Nazis, the museum's archives, exhibits and materials cover the sufferings of other groups as well in great detail. I am a Roman Catholic of Polish descent, and had no idea, for example that the Nazis targeted much of the Catholic clergy in Poland for extermination because of their influence over most of the country's population; this is detailed in the museum's exhibits. Hope this helps. Bonnie Cieslukowski Weissman
