In 1993, there were a hundred and twenty-six homicides in the Seven-Five, as the police call it. Last year, there were forty-four. There is probably no other place in the country where violent crime has declined so far, so fast."]]> 2017-03-09 14:38:43 UTC https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158979825 How https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158980316 Elie tries to grab the author's attention by making the reader aware of what he saw when he was liberated from the death camp, and how he and the soldiers felt. ]]> 2017-03-09 14:39:38 UTC https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158980316 How https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158980905 Elie tries to grab the readers attention by making the reader aware of indifference and what it means. ]]> 2017-03-09 14:40:46 UTC https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158980905 Why: Elie Wiesel https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158981287 2017-03-09 14:41:33 UTC https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158981287 https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158981815 The author starts his speech by explaining the day when US soldiers liberated him from the concentration camps.

fifty is the “tipping point” in this epidemic, the point at which an ordinary and stable phenomenon — a low-level flu outbreak — can turn into a public-health crisis. Every epidemic has its tipping point, and to fight an epidemic you need to understand what that point is. ]]> 2017-03-09 14:48:28 UTC https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158984883 how https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158985490 Elie tries to get the reader to sympathies by explaining the troubles of the camp and relating it to other events.]]> 2017-03-09 14:49:38 UTC https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158985490 Why: Elie https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158986560 The author makes certain writing choices to bring concern and thought to what he is saying.

And then he swings back to comparing AIDs epidemic with crime as an epidemic to make his point that social phenomenon like crime (or reduction of it) reaches a "tipping point"]]> 2017-03-09 14:54:33 UTC https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158988421 WHAT https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158988830 Elie introduces/tries to say that he hopes that the United States and other nations will try to intervene when there are mass killings in a certain area of the world, and that nobody will simply turn their backs to it.

“Gratitude” is a word that I cherish. Gratitude is what defines the humanity of the human being. And I am grateful to you, Hillary, or Mrs. Clinton, for what you said, and for what you are doing for children in the world, for the homeless, for the victims of injustice, the victims of destiny and society. And I thank all of you for being here.]]> 2017-03-09 14:58:32 UTC https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158990520 Why/What Weisel schrocni https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158991397 Weisel uses contrast between Grateful and Indifferent to clearly shift tones into the issue he is ultimately arguing in this essay.

So much violence; so much indifference.
What is indifference? Etymologically,8 the word means “no difference

I see where he is going with his concern over indifference. He's arguing that indifference is what perpetuated the Holocaust, and we are still prone to indifference today!]]> 2017-03-09 15:01:31 UTC https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158991977 What https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158992653 Gladwell describes crime as an epidemic that moves through the city like the flu. ]]> 2017-03-09 15:03:01 UTC https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158992653 Why Weisel schrocni https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158992800 He really uses repetition...probably because in a speech listeners need it, but this paragraph is almost haunting like a chant:
Indifference elicits no response. Indifference is not a response. Indifference is not a beginning; it is an end. And, therefore, indifference is always the friend of the enemy, for it benefits the aggressor — never his victim, whose pain is magnified when he or she feels forgotten. The political prisoner in his cell, the hungry children, the homeless refugees — not to respond to their plight, not to relieve their solitude by offering them a spark of hope is to exile them from human memory. And in denying their humanity, we betray our own.]]> 2017-03-09 15:03:22 UTC https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158992800 Why https://padlet.com/schrocni/td7gv0m6kwx9/wish/158992892 Gladwell develops his question:  "What explains the drop in crime?" by giving theories from several perspectives.
