    During the 1900s, the Holocaust was a horrific time to be alive. Jews were being distinguished by a major military organization known as the Schutzstaffel. Adolf Hitler and his men were separating Jewish families from each other by assassinating them and stealing the wealth they accumulated. But no one would soon believe that a survivor would have the abilities and the strength to publish and write such a memorable book that would soon inform the world about the Holocaust. Night, a novel produced by a first hand Jew named Eliezer Wiesel, puts audience members into a world that was filled with death, loss, and Jewish prisoners who were contemplating whether or not God truly did amazing things.…

    During WW2 one of the worlds most horrific events took place in Aushwitz, Germany, the Holocaust. The best way to inform middle school students about this event is through the movie, Aushwitz Death Camp. It had a high level of interest, good quality information, and it was easy to understand. In this essay I will argue that the movie is best for telling a survivors story to middle schoolers. The most important criteria for middle school students is a high level of interest.…

    During the Holocaust children had slim chances of survival unless someone stepped in to help hide or disguise them and increase their chances of survival. Organizations were even set up to help increase the chance of a child not having to experience the atrocities of a death camp. Obstacles were often encountered that had to be overcome. In order to overcome some of these obstacles, major adjustments would sometimes have to be made to their already altered lifestyles. Going into hiding could potentially save the life of a Jewish child, but finding these hiding places could be hard.…

    Elie Wiesel was only fifteen years old when he arrived with his family by cattle car at Birkenau in May of 1944. He would spend almost a complete year narrowly avoiding the same horrible fate that six million other Jews are said to have suffered at the hands of Nazi Germany. When you take the statistics surrounding the Holocaust into consideration, it is statistically significant that he even managed to survive the almost twelve month ordeal of this living Hell on Earth. However, the impact of the staggeringly high death count, as well as other raw statistics, pales in comparison to the impact of Wiesel's harrowing recounting of his time spent in a waking nightmare. This essay aims to explore how the impact of hearing about someone else's…

    The holocaust was genocide against the Jewish race. Elie Wiesel’s memoir “Night” was a firsthand view of what the Jewish people were put through at the hands of Nazi Germany. The concentration camp system methodically debilitated the prisoners through the heartless process of dehumanization. Each prisoner of the concentration camps was stripped of everything they had ever known, leaving them feeling worthless. This forced change through a loss of faith, loss of compassion and loss of physical health.…
