Studying 'Night' by Elie Wiesel

 Empathy Map 2 - Elie aged 16, at the end of the war

We completed a second Empathy Map looking at what Elie was like at the end of the war. Elie was hollow and just done with everything. When he got out he only wanted food and with his father dead he didn't really have anything else. It was pretty sad reading what happened to him but even sadder knowing it happened to millions of others too.

It makes me see that if people are fed enough propaganda and told enough that something is true the majority will believe it. I didn't really feel hope at any point in the story. The most important message of Night is that you should never trust too much in anything. Always do your research and critically think before coming to a decision so you aren't misinformed.
