In the holocaust, the Nazis severely dehumanized the Jewish people and made them to be lesser people. In the novel Night, in Eliezer’s town all was tranquil, until the Nazis arrived and completely changed his life and the lives of the other Jews in his town. In the launch of the invasion by the Nazis, they had not bothered to identify which individuals were Jews by their name, but the Jews were required to wear a Jewish star to be easily identifiable, dehumanizing them. In addition, the Nazis made the Jews gather outside in a large, orderly fashion. This triggered Eliezer to utter a statement that,” there no longer was any distinction between rich and poor, notables and the others; we were all people condemned to the same fate still unknown.”…

So Hitler started the Holocaust where he basically tried to kill as much Jews as possible where over 6 million Jews were killed. In school we’ve all learned about this horrible event in history but we never focused on how the survivors and Jews were affected by all, of this when it was finally over. So I am going to be focusing on how Jews were affected afteR World War 2 and the Holocaust.…

Elie Wiesel's book night tell us the story of the Holocaust that killed so many Jews and scarred the one that did survive for life. Elie Wiesel just so happens to be one of the luckier ones who actually survived being beat, seeing others being beat and killed, seeing babies being thrown in the air and used as a target practice. Children as well as women and feeble men were thrown in pits of fire, most of them alive, although some of them were dead. He even saw is own father being tortured, struggling until his death. Jews didn't have any rights, privileges or control over their own lives. Adolf Hitler and the Red Army (the Germans) took over with violence, weapons, and cold hearts. It is relevant to today because something very important was going on during this time in the United Statessegregation. It was almost like the Holocaust but one important factor is what makes the Holocaust very different. During this time the Jewish people did not realize that the conditions were getting worse and worse as the days went on. Their government, the Jewish Council, told their people that there was nothing to worry about and things would soon get better, but they were very wrong. Things only got tougher but the Jews did not want to believe it. What makes this different from segregation in the United States is the minorities, Blacks in particular, knew that things were only going to get worse if they didn't do something about it. This is why political figures such as Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, Malcolm X and even President John F. Kennedy were some of the people who stood up for injustice, and segregation, a time when no one other than whites were accepted in the southern parts of the country. MLK and JFK and Malcolm X were assassinated for standing up for what was right.…
The Holocaust was an awful thing. I don’t think it was right at all. It definitely should not had happen at all. It was an unlawful act by humans on other humans. Ellie and all the other survivors are very brave and courageous people for sharing the horrific stories with the rest of the world. I’m sure that with out all their stories we wouldn’t know how bad the Holocaust was.…
