Explanation:
explain: Sometimes I am asked if I know “the response to Auschwitz”; I answer that not only do I not know it, but that I don’t even know if a tragedy of this magnitude has a response. What I do know is that there is “response” in responsibility. When we speak of this era of evil and darkness, so close and yet so distant, “responsibility” is the key word. The witness has forced himself to testify. For the youth of today, for the children who will be born tomorrow. He does not want his past to become their future.
In these final thoughts from the preface precluding his memoir Night, Elie Wiesel talks about memories and trying to understand Auschwitz. What are your thoughts about the above excerpt in context with a theme you observed at work in the novel? Write a response of no less than three paragraphs explaining how the above excerpt introduces and supports a theme you identified in the novel. Make sure to use textual evidence from the novel to support your answer
The text shown above reinforces the context of the importance of keeping memories of the past alive, so that they do not repeat themselves in the future. This theme is very evident throughout the novel, because it presents us with a harsh and cruel reality that happened in the past, reinforcing our responsibility in not allowing it to happen again in the future.
The novel written by Wiesel shows us the cruelty of the holocaust. Although we know this story and know how destructive and inhuman it was, reading the accounts of someone who witnessed these facts, like Wiesel, is impressive and makes us afraid and disgusted. We do not want this to happen again, we do not want these conditions in our future and that is why we must keep these atrocities alive and debated, so that our and future generations do not make the same mistakes.
However, we know that we have failed to repeat the mistakes of the past. Wiesel says that we do not want another holocaust in our history and in our life and we agree with that when reading the novel, but we forget that when we do not fight against racism, anti-Semitism, xenophobia and any other type of prejudice in our homes and in our friendships. . We also fail when we don't vote without responsibility and elect and support prejudiced, intolerant and authoritarian leaders. This shows that although we are afraid, we have learned nothing from the history of humanity and are doomed to experience the same situations.
I want someone to help me write a reflection that talks about equality, racism, civil rights and discrimination.

Imagine that you are attending the Barnard College Graduation Ceremony as a guest of a graduate. You are a member of the audience (not a graduate) as Toni Morrison delivers this speech. Write a fictionalized story in which you describe the experience and setting in detail as well as your own point of view and reactions as you witness the speech. Remember, Morrison may be speaking to women specifically, but there are lessons that men should take away as well. Use information and details from the speech in your answer.
I am seated in one of the last rows of chairs reserved for the audience who will attend the Barnard College Graduation Ceremony. The climate is pleasant and that is why everyone wears comfortable clothes, but consistent with the occasion. We didn't see a cloud in the sky and the environment has a fresh wind, totally balancing the feeling of warmth coming from the sun.
The chairs are white, plastic, but big enough to accommodate my body.
A few minutes after my arrival, the ceremony began, soon the graduates entered and settled in the place reserved for them and in a few minutes we can hear Toni Morrison's speech.
The speech was very emotional and highlighted the challenges and advantages of our professionals who were being trained that day. An important point of the speech, impressed me, when Morrison pointed out the importance of this new generation of professionals looking for equality and gender in their workplaces, since the women present there and those who still entered the job market, struggled to get their diplomas and have a good academic life and for that reason they deserve to be respected and have their rights guaranteed, as well as their wishes, capacity and autonomy respected.
