in 1960. The book is organiz...

day, exacerbates fear in the hearts of men and
women. The anomalistic act by the Nazis has
scarred mankind eternally with abhorrence and
discrimination; as a result, acts of bigotry
continue to infest society into the 21 st century.

Family Ties Strong Family

Written by Alexander Kill - Holocaust Survivor.
The Jews were a strong people that survived 2000
years of dispersion without assimilation. Their
strong survival mechanism was based on adaptation
to persecution. They were like a reef that bends
to the hurricane and survives, while an old tree
is broken. Even their Arch-enemy, Hitler
grudgingly acknowledged this strength. In Mein
Kampf Hitler wrote: In hardly any people in the
world is the instinct of self preservation

Concentration Camps Considered Racially People
766 words
My background is Italian, so that makes me
Italian-Canadian. The only time I have personally
experienced racism was when I was called a wop.
This is how it felt: hurtful, degrading,
humiliating. This is what it made me feel like as
a person: worthless, inferior, powerless. Is this
what goes on in the world? Is it truly fair? That
is what my experience made me wonder. People who
taunt others, in my opinion, are actually insecure
about themselves. It might be because they are
uncomfortable with wh...

Form Of Communication Work Of Art

Without knowing first what art is, we will not be
able to tell what good is art. Having studied
several different definitions of art, I am most
satisfied with Tolstoy's definition of art from
his essay What is Art? (post pg. 21). According to
Tolstoy, art is a form of communication, a vehicle
which the artist can use to communicate his
feelings and emotion; it is a means of intercourse
between man and man (post pg. 23). Tolstoy's
definition of art is hardly based on the beauty of
the work, rathe...
