Blog 1 Part I Reflection

In Part 1, the part that stood out the most was when the Grubers turned on Riva's family in a split second. They became Volksdeutsche and felt they had duty to fulfill as being partially German. The Grubers had been part of their family ever since Riva's mom was born. Once Hitler came around, they betrayed them. That is so hard to imagine. There are people I've known all my life that I consider family. To think they could turn on me that fast is unbearable to fathom.
