“Words tumble out faster than she can think traitorous words, words that nobody ever says aloud, words that could easily land her in an interrogation cell. She can scarcely believe what she’s saying” (Marino 37).

“Her father has only ever had one hobby: Swimming” (Marino 43).

“He could drive right now, swim through the depths until his lungs are said to burst, and come up for air far from the boat. He could climb out, retrieve his jacket and shoes, vanish into the night.... His arm to go up. His arms go down. He splashes” (Marino 9).

People still found ways to get across to the other side by going through apartments, but later that didn't work anymore. The guards couldn't let anyone pass and if they found someone they would have to use force. West Berlin was thriving economically. East Berlin was a normal communist city. "The economy was depressed by the loss of so many educated professionals and the looting of the city by the Russians. Most buildings were drab, gray and nearly identical to each other. Citizens there could afford few luxuries" (Grabianowski).]]> 2023-05-17 15:06:44 UTC https://padlet.com/flowers24/repxhjtpduts0ng/wish/2594876440 flowers24 https://padlet.com/flowers24/repxhjtpduts0ng/wish/2594908106 The book, Escape From East Berlin by Andy Marino, tells two stories about a family trying to escape from East Berlin.

She says in the song that she's not "the girl you want me to be" (Carnes). This shows that she has changed as a person and isn't the same as before. She also says that she won't be waiting for him and won't be holding her breath for him. This shows that her perspective towards him changed because of the event that happened to her and how she overcame it.]]> 2023-05-18 15:06:15 UTC https://padlet.com/flowers24/repxhjtpduts0ng/wish/2596400438 williams517 https://padlet.com/flowers24/repxhjtpduts0ng/wish/2597643726 In the memoir, Night by Elie Wiesel, Wiesel shares his horrific memories of when he was in concentration camps. (during the Holocaust) Along with his story, he also unfolds to the reader how he was treated, and the antisemitism he went through during those dreadful times. Wiesel begins the memoir with the day that he was forced to leave his home, and get into a train car (that was overfilled with people). Wiesel shares that for the next upcoming days he was under fed (starved basically), sleep deprived, crammed in the train car, and had little of his nessicary needs. After this time in Wiesels life, his life was soon going to be changed forever. After that moment he was tranfered to many different camps, saw, and heard many terririzing things (that scarred him for life), and he was deprived of many basic human needs - just like millions of others along with him. When Wiesel was split to go to the mens side of the camp, his father was the only one who was able to make it with him.. throught their journey, Wiesel and his father always took care of eachother and looked out for eachother. In the end of the memoir, both Wiesel and his father, are on a long trail of walking to the next camp. (it was very brutal, and many died), during this journey, Wiesels father passes away. At the very end of the memoir, Wiesel shares that the reason he wrote about his experience, was to remeber the lives that were lost, to spread awareness, and to inform others. ]]> 2023-05-19 13:52:47 UTC https://padlet.com/flowers24/repxhjtpduts0ng/wish/2597643726 flowers24 https://padlet.com/flowers24/repxhjtpduts0ng/wish/2597709960 Marino, Andy.

In "Night", Wiesel has little to no control over his living situation, how much food was given to him, or any control in his daily life. This is very similar to how Marta was feeling when the wall was put up in, "Escape to East Berlin". A difference between the two texts was the subjects. In, "Escape to East Berlin", the subject was Marta (and her family), but in "Night", by Elie Wiesel, the subject was The Holocaust, and the lasting effects that it had on everyone who was involved in the terrible situation. ]]> 2023-05-19 15:06:43 UTC https://padlet.com/flowers24/repxhjtpduts0ng/wish/2597722870 williams517 https://padlet.com/flowers24/repxhjtpduts0ng/wish/2597729722 2023-05-19 15:13:33 UTC https://padlet.com/flowers24/repxhjtpduts0ng/wish/2597729722 flowers24 https://padlet.com/flowers24/repxhjtpduts0ng/wish/2597732225 “5 Comebacks for People Who Talk behind Your Back.” WomenWorking, 16 Feb. 2017, www.womenworking.com/5-comebacks-people-talk-behind-back/. ]]> 2023-05-19 15:16:06 UTC https://padlet.com/flowers24/repxhjtpduts0ng/wish/2597732225 flowers24 https://padlet.com/flowers24/repxhjtpduts0ng/wish/2597733157 https://www.womenworking.com/5-comebacks-people-talk-behind-back/]]> 2023-05-19 15:17:06 UTC https://padlet.com/flowers24/repxhjtpduts0ng/wish/2597733157 williams517 https://padlet.com/flowers24/repxhjtpduts0ng/wish/2597734352 This image relates to the essential question, because it represents how the girl in the front (the girl being left out), may think that those girls were talking about her, or making fun of her, but they may just talking about something that correlates to them instead.
