50 Photos That Shine A Light On Some Of The Darkest Parts Of History
History is not all innovations and celebrations. In fact, a lot of it isn’t. There are countless instances of brutality, war, racism, genocide and other disturbing, shameful truths. And while tragedies do not exist only in the past, just take a look at the war Putin is cruelly waging in Ukraine, it is important for us to understand history to try to keep ourselves from repeating the darkest moments.
We’ve gathered a list of disturbing and painful historical photos down below, so we can all shine a light on some of the most unsettling parts of the world’s past. I will warn you, some of these photos are hard to see, but many of them capture important moments in history that we cannot allow ourselves to forget.
Although it is fascinating and informative, I understand that this list is a bit heavier than many of Bored Panda’s other publications. So after you have taken a moment to look back on these heartbreaking photos, we recommend checking out this article featuring some lighter moments from history that might bring a smile to your face and restore a bit of your faith in humanity.

Anne Frank’s Father Otto, Revisiting The Attic Where They Hid From The Nazis. He Was The Only Surviving Family Member (1960)
Later the photographer Arnold Newman recalled taking of this photo: “The mood was depressing, and I immediately began photographing him. After a few moments, the Westertoren bells next door began to ring, and Frank turned to me and said: ‘Those were the bells that Anne wrote about.’ He suddenly broke down completely, weeping uncontrollably, and then so did I. We never met again. To this day when I lecture or tell this story to people, I find I choke up; I still can’t help myself.”

When I first read the book I was around 12 and it was part of our curriculum. At that time I didn't know that her father had survived the camp. There must be so many families who didn't see a single survival. There must be so many who survived to find out they don't know a single person. It's beyond messed up and again humans are sometimes absolute monsters to other humans.

Kostin claims the image is very noisy because radiation was destroying the film in his camera. Of all the shots he took on that flight, this is the only one that wasn't ruined.

All Women And Girls Using Radium Paint With No Protection Or Warnings In 1922
The radium girls were female factory workers who contracted radiation poisoning from painting watch dials with self-luminous paint. After being told that the paint was harmless, the women in each facility ingested deadly amounts of radium after being instructed to "Point" their brushes on their lips in order to give them a fine tip. Some also painted their fingernails, face, and teeth with the glowing substance.

It was not known then that radium was dangerous. Radium was popular until the early 1930s. It was commonly added not only to paint, but also to medicines, cosmetics, baby wool, condoms, toothpaste, sweets, etc.

Pennsylvania Breaker Boys. The Dust Was So Dense At Times As To Obscure The View. This Dust Penetrates The Utmost Recess Of The Boy's Lungs. South Pittston, Pennsylvania 1911
A breaker boy was a coal-mining worker in the US and the UK whose job was to separate impurities from coal by hand in a coal breaker. Although breaker boys were primarily children, elderly coal miners who could no longer work in the mines because of age, disease, or accident were also sometimes employed as breaker boys. The use of breaker boys began in the mid-1860s. Although public disapproval of the employment of children as breaker boys existed by the mid-1880s, the practice did not end until the early 1920s.

Holocaust Jews In A Railway Car
Oerff On Tour 4 years ago
This is one of those iconic pictures portraying jews being transported in cattle cars. Unfortunately these pictures are the exception. 95%of the deported jews were transported in regular passenger carriages (although overcrowded) The Germans had a better use for cattle and cargo carriages: transporting goods for the army! The only time they used these for jews, was when they took old stock (almost derelict) carriages, was when they needed more for their army taken from occupied counties. Then they would (conveniently) pack them with jews and send them via a concentration camp to where they were needed. (Which could also mean the scrappers, for there was a shortage of raw materials like steel. )
