Father Patrick Desbois is currtenly working on uncovering Jewish garves and sites. He is finding atifacts and testimonies for the Holocaust Museum. Since 2001 he has uncovered 800 sites out of the suspected 2,000. He is doing this by criss-crossing the countryside of Ukraine with Museum staff and other helpers.

Father Patrick Desbois has a goal of finding and uncovering sites of Jews and uncovering their graves. He is accomplishing this goal by going door-to-door in the Ukranian villages asking about their confessions. He has video taped over 700 interviews and has identified over 600 common Jewish graves. I think this is a good idea he has. We should get to know what really happened with a first hand account.

Here are some similar sites I have found:

this site is survivors recalling their tragic experience in camps. I thought this site was simalar to the descriptions in "Night."

This site is about the victims that weren't Jewish. This helped me realize that there were actually a lot of non-Jewish victims as well

Father Patrick Desbois is trying to make people remember the Holocaust and preserve the memory by finding the death camps and interviewing the survivors.

This site I found it all about the jewish survivors and their stories. The site it organized, pretty, has powerful content, contains voice recordings and written accounts of the individuals' stories, biographies, pictures the survivors gave, and more.

I agree with justinew, this was a great idea from Desbois. And no, I did not just get this site off of justinew, I just now read her comment, I swear. Also, this really is a great site though.

Here's also a site about some of the different death camps.

Father Patrick Desbois has a very good goal in my mind. He is trying to find Jewish graves; witch I think is a very good way to live a life. Trying to find those who have passed that are unknown to others. It is awsome. He is trying to find grave sites where the Nazis mass murdered hundreds of innocent Jews. He is accomplishing this by finding artifacts to help make videos to show the public the truth. A fact that a lot of my classmates have caught, that is almost freighting is that he has already uncovered 800 of the thought of 2,000(+) areas where these horrible killings took place. To think that there are over 2,000 areas where this has happened is almost unfathomable.

Father Patrick Desbois is accomplishing his goal because he is learing more about the Jewish grave sites and artifacts. He is accomplishing this by visiting the holocaust mueseum and visitinjg overe 800 graves. He is also doing this by recording video testemonies of eyewitnesses. All his studies are being displayed in the muesem for remembrance of those who passed. Its good for people to know about what happened during those timesand that they are being remembered for living through those awful times.

Here is a website I found about the camps, lists of those who died, and even interviews from survivors:
