The old "sticks and stones" saying is no longer true — both real-world and online name-calling can have serious emotional consequences for our kids and teens.” As they quotation said, the internet gives people a whole new platform to use, to bully other kids and teens.

In this piece, Wiesel writes about his experience with his father in the Nazi concentration camps. The concentration camps were at Auschwitz and Buchenwald, and they were in the camps from 1944-1945. This also took place at the height of the Holocaust, which was toward the end of World War ll. 

The novel starts off with Elie, his family, and other Jews in a small town located in Sighet attempting to flee their country. Instead they all get captured, and are sent to concentration camps. The camp that they are first sent to is in Auschwitz, where Wiesel is separated from his mother and two younger sisters. He remains with his father. As the novel continues, Wiesel finds himself struggling to survive because of the lack of food and abuse he recieves. He also finds himself with a conflict between supporting his weakening father, or giving himself the best chance of survival.

World War ll was one of the biggest and deadliest wars in history. It was sparked by the Nazi invasion of Poland in 1939, and was ended by the Allies defeating Nazi Germany and Japan in 1945. The reason this war was one of the most deadliest in history is not only because of the fighting, but because of all of the Jews in the concentration camps. Nazis would torture, starve, and kill the Jewish people in the camps. One of the Nazi concentration camps was named Auschwitz. Auschwitz was one of the largest camps, and was located in southern Poland. It originally served as a place of punishment for political prisoners, however it turned into a network of camps where Jews and others who rebelled against the Nazis were killed. Prisoners there were often killed in gas chambers, were turned into slaves, or were used for Josef Mengele’s science expierements. About one million people were killed at Auschwitz, and in 1945 Nazi officials forced all of the prisoners to march to other locations. This was because the Soviet army was approaching.]]> 2019-03-29 13:43:19 UTC https://padlet.com/a_coffey/xtwtgqv6djw8/wish/346548178 a_coffey https://padlet.com/a_coffey/xtwtgqv6djw8/wish/346551527 “A Raisin in the Sun” is a play written by Lorraine Hansberry.
