This photograph, taken on July 4, 1946, shows 11 former Nazis being publicly executed at the Stutov concentration camp on Bishop's Hill in Poland's Great Mountain after the end of World War II.
On the day of the execution of the 11 Nazis, the Polish government and private factories in the region took a holiday and provided some means of transportation to help the Polish people go to the execution site to observe the public execution, so that about 200,000 Polish people arrived at the scene and witnessed the public execution.
This public execution was one of the important trials and punishments for Nazi crimes.
Stutov was a concentration camp set up by Nazi Germany in Poland during World War II, where thousands of Poles were relentlessly persecuted and killed.
And these 11 former Nazis were accused of direct involvement in these crimes, thus attracting widespread attention and participation in their trial and execution.
This old photograph was taken in 1945, after the liberation of Kiev, Nazi war criminals were publicly hanged.
Soviets hated the Nazis for a reason, and throughout World War II, more than 27 million people were killed in the Soviet Union, 20 million of whom were civilians.
After the scales of war changed, the Soviets, who had been slaughtered by the Nazis, simply wanted revenge.
This precious photograph also records an important historical moment in the Soviet Union that was occupied by the Nazis after the liberation of Soviet forces at the end of World War II.
For the liberated Kiev civilians, who were finally freed by the Soviet army and no longer had to kneel under Nazi rule, they only wanted to see all Nazis punished, because they had personally experienced or witnessed Nazi brutality and mass murder.
Therefore, when Nazi war criminals were arrested and publicly hanged, what these civilians wanted was for the invaders to pay for the lives of their compatriots, and it was precisely because of this bloody debt mentality that the Soviets were understandably disgusted and revenge against Nazi war criminals.
This photograph, taken in the 60s, shows a mother and her children in Germany's "black village", which Germans call "brown babies".
Brown babies are the term used to children born to black soldiers and white German women or white German women after World War II, also known as "war orphans", "war babies" and "working babies".
In Germany, they are also known as Mischlingskinder, a derogatory term first used under the Nazi regime to refer to Jewish-German mestizos.
After the end of World War II, Germany became an important location for brown babies born between black soldiers and German women.
Many black soldiers were stationed in Germany after the war as Allies, and they married local women or had one-night stands, resulting in the birth of these mixed-race children.
After these Allied soldiers returned to their home countries, these mixed-color babies were often socially isolated and faced severe racial discrimination due to their atypical skin color and identity.
In order to improve their situation, some brown babies were sent to black adoptive families in the United States.
It is estimated that as many as 5,000 brown babies were sent to the United States in the late '50s and early '60s to live and grow in black communities.
This old photograph was taken on August 23, 1961, and the two girls in this photograph are Rosemary and Krimhild, who were former classmates.
Rosemary lived in Berlin's East End and Klimhild lived in Berlin's West End, and the two could have seen each other often, but in August 1961 the Berlin Wall began to erect and the city would be divided, which meant it was difficult for them to continue playing together.
On August 23 of that year, before the Berlin Wall was fully erected, Klimhild appeared from the west side of the wall, while Rosemary appeared from the east side, holding hands together, recounting longings that had not been seen for a long time.
A guard on the east side watched the two children approach, and instead of stopping them, he just stood near them to prevent one of the girls from jumping over the wall.
As the two girls said goodbye to each other, photographer Horst Sigmann appeared and snapped the photograph, which became one of the symbols of this history and has been hanging ever since in the Trepto Museum in Berlin's Rosemary district.
This photograph, taken in May 1946, shows 28 German war criminals hanged for war crimes in Landsberg Prison, the first prison for war criminals in the United States.
The 28 German prisoners of war who served in the Dachau concentration camp were liberated by two divisions of the U.S. Seventh Army, where more than 40 guards were captured, and 36 prisoners were sentenced to death in successive trials.
