Title: Justice in the Nuremberg Trials Forum
Course: BC-Genocide Studies 12-1.1.0.0-XT

Answer the following forum question:  Did the results of the Nuremberg Trials lead to justice? Why or why not? Be sure to define justice as part of your response, and use specific historic facts to support your opinion. You are encouraged to make ethical judgements about the actions of the Nazis and carefully weigh whether the consequences they faced were appropriate and constitute “justice.”

Your original response should be between 250 and 300 words. You should use proper paragraph format, clearly stating your position in a topic sentence. You should then support your position using evidence and write a concluding sentence to wrap your paragraph up.

If you complete additional research, be sure to only choose reliable and credible sources as evidence. Use a bibliography-making website like mybib.com or bibme.org to list your source or sources.

Once you have written and posted your own paragraph, respond to at least one other classmate with a 150- to 200-word response. If you agree with a classmate’s original post, express the reason why and try to add additional support for their position. If you disagree with the original post, respectfully and kindly explain why you disagree, providing factual evidence and logical reasons why you believe what you do.

Your posts will be marked according to the rubric below.
