Adolf Hitler was the most notorious person in the 1900’s. He created the most brutal act, and discriminating time period, known as the holocaust. The jewish society was unable to stop Hitler from the acts he was successfully able to achieve. Over 11 million people died, that was with the help of many German allies that sided with Hitler. Although the jews thought there were only bad people in this world, many brave men and women were able to free the rest of the jewish at the concentration camps, and declared freedom for the jewish society. Many of the holocaust victims were affected greatly by this event. Elie Wiesel is a widely known holocaust survivor, and shares many characteristics of

On page 110, the blockalteste said to Elie, “Stop giving your ration of bread and soup to your old father. You cannot help him anymore.” This explains that even though the blockalteste told Elie not to share his ration of bread with his father, he was worried and loved his father so much that he did not listen to what other people were saying to him. Even if the consequences of his actions were starving himself. Never shall I forget was a poem Elie wrote in Night. The poem that Elie wrote describes that he will never forget the moments in the time of the holocaust. This caused great trauma for Elie in the later years in his life, which allowed him to share his experiences with others in the future. “Never shall I forget those things, even were I condemned to live as long as God himself.” This was said on page 34. The poem describes the vast amount of pain and trauma he will go through after this time. He will not want people to experience a time period like he had to go through ever again. Hope was a key characteristic for a holocaust member or victim to have. This would allow many members, including Elie, to escape the Germans, survive the concentration camps, and be free at last. Page 112 says, “And deep inside me, if I could

Americans played a role in the jews life. They freed the jewish population, and are well known to the jews as strong, brave, bold liberators. Americans took on a brave role in the jews life. They helped them escape from the horrible events Hitler planned. Americans allowed the jews to be human beings again. The Americans liberated the jews in Elie Wiesel's book Night, stated on page 115, “The first American tank stood at the gate of Buchenwald.” Elie thought this torture would no come to an end, but the Americans were brave enough to stand tall at Buchenwald, and set them free. The Americans fought toughly through the battlefield of Hitlers wrath. Their brave souls paid off as they took down Hitler, and became well-known heroes. Also stated on page 115, “ Bursts of gunshots, grenades exploding.” They risked their lives, and sacrificed themselves, to the jews of Germany, so they could be free as one. Courageous is another way to describe the American liberators who freed the jewish. They used their strength and power to rescue dying, hungry, and hopeless jews. Page 115 said, “Our first act as free men was to throw ourselves onto the provisions.” Although this does not describe the act that the Americans did to liberate the jews. It describes the emotions that the many men felt after being free. They have endless possibilities as free humans, and are finally not dehumanized. The Americans
