This showed how ruthless the German soldiers can be when they are dealing with Jews.]]> 2019-02-25 21:01:24 UTC https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/335102524 2119851 https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/335642135 The holocaust has shaped our society in many ways , for example. There are few Jews in the world compared to back before the holocaust. The amount of difference between Jewish populations and other religions is an example of how many people were killed in the Holocaust.]]> 2019-02-26 20:54:50 UTC https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/335642135 2119851 https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/335646324 An emaciated 18-year-old Russian girl looks into the camera lens during the liberation of Dachau concentration camp in 1945. ]]> 2019-02-26 21:03:35 UTC https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/335646324 2119851 https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/336146664 When rounding up the Jews  "They pointed  a finger , as though choosing cattle or merchandise".

This gives us an insight on how the Germans dehumanized these people . Just another example of how terrible the holocaust was.]]> 2019-02-27 20:37:26 UTC https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/336146664 2119851 https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/336152273 A group of Jews, including a small boy, is escorted from the Warsaw Ghetto by German soldiers in this April 19, 1943 photo.]]> 2019-02-27 20:50:12 UTC https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/336152273 2119851 https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/336152504 In the beginning of the novel "Night" Eli is a very happy and innocent boy. The Jews then take his family to go to the concentration camp. Through the journey of the holocaust Eli becomes more and more desensitized to the death. This shows the true effects of the terrible holocaust. What was just a little boy became child who fest relived when his father died and did not bat an eye why seeing people get killed.]]> 2019-02-27 20:50:45 UTC https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/336152504 2119851 https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/337663332 I believe that a person and an origination of people have a limited responsibility to act against injustice. I believe that we have the right to help ourselves and the people of this country when injustices such as our rights being withdrawn and began to leave and be taken away. I personally don't believe that we have the right to intervene with out of country matters unless threatened by an outside force such as ISIS.]]> 2019-03-04 20:29:37 UTC https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/337663332 2119851 https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/337665890 "The doors were nailed up; the way back was finally cut off. The world was a cattle wagon hermetically sealed."

This quote is about the journey from being picked up from their towns to the camps. 
I realized that this also represents the whole persons journey though the holocaust. ]]> 2019-03-04 20:35:42 UTC https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/337665890 2119851 https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/337667146 "'Do you see that chimney over there? See it? Do you see those flames? (Yes, we did see the flames.) Over there-that's where you're going to be taken. That's your grave, over there.'" 

This quote supports my theme by showing how close everybody was to death. Literally feet away from them is their grave. Where they would die.]]> 2019-03-04 20:38:42 UTC https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/337667146 2119851 https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/337668373 "Yet another last night. The last night at home, the last night in the ghetto, the last night in the train, and, now, the last night in Buna. How much longer were our lives to be dragged out from one 'last night' to another?"

This reminded me of the title of the story NIGHT. I believe that this passage was used for the title and the title represents this, the last night. They always had to run to the last night. ]]> 2019-03-04 20:41:42 UTC https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/337668373 2119851 https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/337670013  "When they withdrew, next to me were two corpses, side by side, the father and the son. I was fifteen years old."

This passage reminded me of my theme . Just at fifteen years of age , this boy had to see two dead corpses. Father and son.
Nobody should have the witness these horrors, just like the holocaust.]]> 2019-03-04 20:46:00 UTC https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/337670013 https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/339993898 2019-03-11 14:59:54 UTC https://padlet.com/2119851/5fzgfpma3wlz/wish/339993898
