They aren't the same not one bit. IN the Holocaust millions (6 million to be percise) of innocent Jews were killed, along with gypsies, homosexuals, cripples, and mentally handicaps. The Civil was trying to liberate a certain people so they could eventually be treated as equal. Nothing in common.

There are not many; American Slavery was about economics, getting people to work for the lowest cost, The Holocaust was about eliminating a group of people from the face of the earth.

If one wanted to compare the Holocaust to something American; one should use the oppression of the Native Americans.

None, unless you count things like there were people involved in both.

One was all about the rights being taken away - the other about gaining rights.

How is the Holocaust similair to American slavery?

They both involved human beings, but apart from that, there is not any real similarity. American slavery was not designed to eliminate a group from the country, as the Holocaust was. Instead, they were importing the slaves and taking them to another country to be sold as free labor. The Holocaust victims were killed simply for being Jewish, which is genocide.A bit more:The only similarity was control. The Nazis had full control and power over the Jews, and the slave owners had full control and power over the slaves. And there was little to nothing the Jews or the slaves could do about it.
