The Holocaust
The holocaust was a time of TRAGEDY. Many people died through deception and manipulation. Survivors now have to live with the pain they experienced. One of those survivors is a man named,Elie Wiesel Elie was around 12 or 13 years old when he and his family went through this horrific event. They were told that it was only for moment, but it turned out that they were in different concentration camps for about 3 years. this was a horrible as well as a memorable time for the Jewish people . This is also a reflection for the African American people because this was reminds them of slavery and the devastation that the African Americans went through many years ago.
