How did the Eichmann trial change survivors’ lives?

Explanation:ifty years ago one of the world's most notorious war criminals sat in a courtroom for a trial that would be among the first in history to be completely televised.

That man was Adolf Eichmann — and he had been in charge of transporting millions of European Jews to death camps.

A year before the 1961 trial, Eichmann had been abducted by Israeli agents while he was living in Argentina.

The trial captivated millions of people. And it was the first time many of them — including Israelis-- even learned about the details of the Holocaust.

Now Deborah Lipstadt, renowned historian and professor of religion and holocaust studies at Emory University has written a new account of the trial. She tells All Things Considered weekend host Guy Raz that the Eichmann trial was different from any other war crimes trial because it featured the stories of Holocaust survivors and captured the emotions that weren't a part of the document-heavy Nuremberg Trials, which took place more than a decade earlier

It made the survivors' voices heard.

Explanation:

Many stories were told of the accounts and what the Holocaust survivors were put through. Many countries, unsurprisingly enough, had no idea what was going on in Germany of the time. During the time of the Eichmann Trial, they got to hear the stories and truly find out what the survivors had gone through. Additonally, this helped the people who were guilty to be punished properly, having a first-hand witness tell all that had happened.

Hope this helped!
