Women protesting forced hijab days after the Iranian Revolution, 1979.
The date was March 8, International Women’s Day, and the image shows women from all walks of life — nurses, students, mothers — marching, smiling, arms raised in protest. More than 100,000 of them. At the time, Golestan recalls, Iranian people were very “politically charged” and believed change could be effected by demonstrating in the streets. “This time they were disappointed,” she says. “From the next day everybody had to wear the scarf.”

#32 & #34 are not correct. Don't know who those people are, but they are not the people named.

One of the biggest differences between germany and the other great powers is, that Germany couldn't get rid of its dictators by its own. Thanks to everyone who helped fighting them and bringing justice to my country

The caption for #9 is utter nonsense. Multiple credible sources describe the man facing Himmler as a captured Russian infantryman. Russian soldiers were not sent to POW camps, they went directly to concentration camps with civilians, to be worked to death as slave labour. This explains why none of the men imprisoned with the young Russian man are wearing uniforms.
Himmler apparently asked the young man if he was Jewish, to which he replied yes. Himmler is said to have then replied "Then not even I can help you."
