In this article, it talks about Elie Wiesel. As Elie talks about his experience with the holocaust, and concentration camps. Its breath taking! He describes all of the hurt faces and loved ones being separated out of their own homes to be taken away to camps or workplaces. Elie also mentioned the feelings and own opinions about how the SS workers did their job and how the whole concentration camps were organized. Elie still questions himself today, asking why? why did I out of all people, why did I survive? Was it a miracle? Elie didn’t believe in asking for miracles, because he seen his own father beaten down till he was dead. After the war, Wiesel studied in Paris and then soon became a journalist in the city. In 1978, he was appointed by President Jimmy Carter as Chairman of the President’s Commission on the Holocaust.

I like that you chose to write your post on Elie. I'm surprised that he decided to stay in Europe after everything that happened.
