Robbins-Blog Post #5
Why, that was the thought racing through my head all throughout this unit. Looking back from modern day the topic seems impossible to believe, yet we know it happened. We know that the jews were killed and oppressed and stripped of everything but why. I came into this unit thinking to myself that I knew, yet I leave with my understanding altered. I find the topic hitting me closer. I feel a full new understanding. My eyes and ears were opened from seeing those pictures and reading Night. Of course I will never fully understand the real depth of the holocaust, yet after this unit I feel more connected. I watched and listened to Elie Wiesel's speech and to see and hear him speak so passionately about not being silent rally hit me. This entire unit has truly made me think.
