Obviously reading about Patrick Henry is like a flash back to the revolution era. His Speeches are one of the best in America because Patrick Henry motivates the people of Virginia to fight for liberty. That speech made him famous and nowadays he is in the History books . Truly, Patrick Henry is one of the greatest American authors because of his writing style and affect on history . “He spoke without any notes in a voice that became louder and louder, climaxing with the now famous ending. Following his speech, the vote was taken in which his resolutions passed by a narrow margin, and thus Virginia joined in the American Revolution”.(“Patrick Henry.” )…
McVeigh dropped out of college and joined the army when he was 18 years old. He felt that the government had no reason to kill several people at Waco or Ruby Ridge. This is when he decided to take care of the situation himself, and decided to blow up a building and murder countless people. He believed that people learn traits from the government and he felt that the government were not higher up that the people of the United States. It's an "equal" country, so shouldn't everyone be "equal?" I agree with his rational for this, but his actions definitely spoke louder than his words.…

On the porch they walk to the old oak rocking chairs, and begin to discuss the recent political events and opinions of the well known Thomas Jefferson and Patrick Henry.…

He defines the word as "dehumanizing" and how anything can help. Any litte action can come a long way. Why was Wiesel so subtle when he addressed the U.S. Government? Why were his questions so numerous? How is indifference common…
Like Elie said in his interview with Oprah, that “We must not forget about the victims [Holocaust’s victims] who had lay down, for the next generation. For ours, we hear you.” Lessons that still need to be learned from the Holocaust, are the importance of Holocaust remembrance, and the…
Again, no one wants to forget the holocaust or any other massive catastrophe like 9/11 or some other event.We need to remember these events so that they do not happen again.There are many things that I can do to help the world remember these events. But a lot of these things are very difficult for someone like me to do. These things are very expensive to do. So for now I’ll probably just have some small talk in conversation from time to time. I also feel like i don’t really have the right to talk about the holocaust because i have not been through the holocaust…
Today I, Jack Merridew, called this meeting to discuss the future for all of us on this island. I recognize that for weeks we have been on this island, for weeks we have led a meaningless existence.

All men and women, were created equal but sometimes if a person who has something against another type of person, very bad things can happen. People can get hurt, and we don’t want anyone to be hurt, do we? I am here today to explain to all of you why it is wrong to judge other people. There was once a man called, Adolf Hitler. Adolf Hitler, was the chancellor of Germany from 1933 to 1945. Hitler was also the head of the Nazi Party in Germany a long time ago. Hitler believed that not all men were the same. Because of his beliefs, he led Nazi Germany on an attack against people who in his mind, were bad people because they were different. The Nazi Party were a group of men and women who believed how Adolf Hitler believed. Hitler, was the head of these Nazis but because they were all in a position of power, they used their power to hurt other people. The Nazi’s main targets were the Jewish people. Hitler commanded his Nazis to capture all Jewish people, and then separate them into Concentration Camps. Once the Jewish men, women and children were there, they were abused and in most cases, killed. The Nazis also targeted people who were against their cause. There were many people who were against them. Adolf Hitler was guilty of organizing over 11-million deaths. Over 6-million people were Jewish. Not only did Adolf Hitler hate people who did not fit into his idea of what a person should look like, what they should believe or what race they were, but he also targeted people with disabilities. Hitler married a woman named Eva Braun. The Red Army (which was a militia of Russian peasants and workers), along with America and Britian, defeated Nazi Germany on May 2, 1945.…
