Blog Post #5-Lachlan.A

This experience of the Holocaust affect me on an emotional level. Before this experience I did not know much about the Holocaust I just had heard of horrible man named Adolf Hitler and the genocide he had created. After reading the book Night and after the documentaries and films that we watched I've been slapped by reality. I've been dwelling a lot on my own as well, about how people could have so much hatred on the people who are their neighbors. Just ordinary people that have so much hatred. I'm just so confused how people could just back stab their neighbors as soon as a new political party rose. Ordinary people turning into monsters you don't see that everyday.

Our world is still infected with thriving hatred, people are truly suffering. As citizens of a free country, we must take action, support survivors and give them justice. We need to stop squabbling over the small things and fight for human rights.

However, a sharp turning point in the autobiography acknowledges the progression of concern in the community: “ On the seventh day of Passover, the curtain finally rose: the Germans arrested the leaders of the Jewish community… The race toward death had begun.” (10) I was disheartened by my knowledge of their fate, and how it continued undetected until it was too late. It pains me that the human race is repeatedly burdened with this horrific plot, often caused by disbelief or miscommunication. The population was rushed into ghetto’s, but the mentality of the Jewish inhabitants kept the soldiers from gaining full authority: “ The ghetto was ruled by neither German nor Jew; it was ruled by delusion.” (12) I grieve for the people who were too intimidated to run or weren’t able to. It’s unclear w...
