Understanding Genocides
Before reading the memoir "Night," by Elie Wiesel, I had never heard of the word Genocide. Now I now that it means any act committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group. I also learned in "Night" that genocide is associated with hatred which is something I will always remember. "Night" was about the holocaust during World War II against Jews. I will never forget the torture and pain Jews had to endure during that time. "Night" put this aspect into a more personal view which made it harder to forget. The holocaust was very similar to the Rawanda Genocide, the Japanese Internment Camps, the treatment of women in the Taliban, and the African Slave Trade even though they took place at different times and places.
