Hope

This Symbol represents the Nazi party and how they tried to extinguish the Jews. so to this day this sign is the sign of the Nazi but this symbol really originated from Buddhist.
Hitler was the all time leader of the Nazi Party this connects to the theme hope because the Jews were running out of hope as Hitler became powerful

This picture shows the condition that the Jews were in during the Holocaust and they were suffering they were hoping to be free and they were praying to God to be free once they have nothad any hope left they lost their faith as well towards God
This is the Star of David that the Jews had to wear on their jackets during the holocaust showing the Germans that they were Jews


Hope: The feeling that what is wanted can be had or that events will turn out for the best: to give up hope.

Prais Thy Jews For the Sufferage (Blog #4)

“Blessed be God’s name…” [67](A found poem from Elie Weisel’s Night)

“Oh God, Master of the Universe, in your infinite compassion, have mercy on us…” [20]
“Blessed be the Almighty…” [67]
“Blessed be God’s name…” [67]
“All the earth and universe are God’s!” [67]
“We gave thanks to God” [27]
“Blessed be Thou, Almighty, Master of the Universe, who chose us among all nations to be tortured day and night, to watch as our fathers, our mothers, our brothers end up in the furnace? Praised be Thy Holy Name, for having chosen us to be slaughtered on Thine altar?” [67]
“For God’s sake, where is God?” [65]
“Where is merciful God, where is He? [64]
“God is testing us. He wants to see whether we are capable of overcoming our base instincts, of killing the Satan within ourselves.” [45]
“For the first time, I felt anger rising within me, Why should I sanctify His name? The Almighty, the eternal and terrible Master of the Universe, chose to be silent. What was there to thank him for?” [33]
“What are You, my God?” [66]
“Why, but why would I bless Him? Every fiber in me rebelled Because He caused thousands of children to burn in His mass graves?” [67]
“Yes, man is stronger, greater than God. When Adam and Eve deceived You, You chased them from paradise. When You were displeased by Noah’s generation, You brought down the Flood. [67-68]
“Some of the men spoke of God: His mysterious ways, the sins of the Jewish people, and the redemption to come. As for me, I had ceased to pray.” [45]
“Comrades, you are now in the concentration camp Auschwitz. Ahead of you lies a long road paved with suffering . Don’t lose hope.” [41]

Historical contex of WWII and the Novel

An Artafact

in the book night is when the violin. When Juliek played it, Wiesel thought why would someone want to play a violin among the dead and the dying.
There will be more Artifacts through out the book there's one about a Jewish star that all the Jews were forced to wear in the concentration camps and everywhere else. The Jewish star in the book is very much the same as in the real world war II because jews did have to wear that star on their chest to show their race to the Germans so they know who the Jews are.

What to Blame

In world war II I wouldn't say it was all Hitlers fault of the war he had caused many things that could cause the war but i don't think he was the only man to start World War II. World War Two began in September 1939 when Britain and France declared war on Germany following Germany's invasion of Poland. Although the outbreak of war was triggered by Germany's invasion of Poland, the causes of the war are more complex. Hitler killed so many Jews way more to count out but then Germany wanted to invade Poland which had triggered World War II so it was somewhat Hitlers fault but I don't think it was fully his fault, On August 2, 1939, just before the beginning of World War II, Albert Einstein wrote to President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Einstein and several other scientists told Roosevelt of efforts in Nazi Germany to purify uranium-235, which could be used to build an atomic bomb.

Dont hate apreciate

1. Hate is when people really don't like others and Dislike intensely: feel aversion towards something like lets say I hate food that means that i really dislike that type of food and don't ever want to try it again or another example it can also show anger like for example "I hate you dad you never let me do anything" its showing anger but that doesn't mean she really hates him she's just really unhappy with the decision that he had made for her." Hate is a big part of our world today and in the past. Hitler really represented hatred by distinguishing almost all of the Jews.

For sheer numbers, one would have to say that Black Americans suffered the most severe discrimination bear all of the discrimination in housing, employment, education, and access to public accommodations and programs that had marked their plight from the days of slavery, but in addition, they were assigned to armed forces units that kept black and white servicemen separate.

There have been reports that genetic discrimination has been practiced by employers and insurers who are afraid of being required to cover the potentially high medical expenses of individuals who have a family history of a genetically inheritable disease, even if those individuals exhibit no symptoms of the actual disease.
