    In chapter seven of Night, by Elie Wiesel, one of the most emotional scenes is shared. The Jews are being transported to a different location and the officers begin to throw bread crumbs as a sort of sick, twisted game. They enjoy watching the Jews turn on each other and maim one another just for the smallest crumb of bread. In my cartoon, the first quadrant is the scene where young Eliezer talks about the train ride and how claustrophobic everyone became due to the space provided and the amount of Jews crammed in. The next frame is of the father crawling out of the mob while our main character sat watching.

  • Review Of Elie Wiesel's 'Night'

    I don’t think there is another quote out there that can better summarize life under Nazi rule. I think that this quote really gets the point across that if you see something terrible happening, and don’t try to stop it you’re just as bad as the person doing it. This really tells me that you can’t be afraid to speak up for something that is wrong, even if it means death. The quote mentions that if you stand by and lets all these bad things happen, that you are as guilty as the people doing them. I think that is very true, the counties who sat by and watched the holocaust happen are just as bad as the Nazis.

    I do not know much about my ancestors; I can only assume they come from Germany and they came a long time ago because my great-great grandparents were from America. The only home I have ever known is America. America is a country that takes the good and the bad and rolls with it, especially in the little circle of America that I live in. Bonfires, county picnics, fried-chicken, and farms associate themselves with the “American Way”; however, American culture and life go far beyond what many may at first perceive. What else could you expect from a “free” nation other than a place of freedom to express and believe whatever you want.

    Elie Wiesel’s Night was by far been my favorite book that I have read over the last three and a half years. This is the best account of the horrors of the holocaust I have ever read as well. It really opened my eyes to the terrible things that happened to the people put in concentration camps and all the ghastly things that the German soldiers did. One such act that made me cringe and feel terrible inside was when he said that the SS would take babies and use them as targets by throwing them in the air and shooting them.
