Based on Wiesel’s speech, why do people “tell the tale” of the horrible events in the Holocaust?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer down below!

Explanation:

People "tell the tale" of the Holocaust because history often repeats itself. People need to know these kinds of things because they dont want history to repeat. They also tell because if the people don't know, it will be forgotten, and the people whose lives were lost are forgotten as well.

please give me brainiest

Explanation:

Elie Wiesel’s Acceptance Speech, on the occasion of the award of the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo, December 10, 1986

It is with a profound sense of humility that I accept the honor you have chosen to bestow upon me. I know: your choice transcends me. This both frightens and pleases me.

It frightens me because I wonder: do I have the right to represent the multitudes who have perished? Do I have the right to accept this great honor on their behalf? … I do not. That would be presumptuous. No one may speak for the dead, no one may interpret their mutilated dreams and visions.

It pleases me because I may say that this honor belongs to all the survivors and their children, and through us, to the Jewish people with whose destiny I have always identified.

I remember: it happened yesterday or eternities ago. A young Jewish boy discovered the kingdom of night. I remember his bewilderment, I remember his anguish. It all happened so fast. The ghetto. The deportation. The sealed cattle car. The fiery altar upon which the history of our people and the future of mankind were meant to be sacrificed.

I remember: he asked his father: “Can this be true?” This is the twentieth century, not the Middle Ages. Who would allow such crimes to be committed? How could the world remain silent?

And now the boy is turning to me: “Tell me,” he asks. “What have you done with my future? What have you done with your life?”

And I tell him that I have tried. That I have tried to keep memory alive, that I have tried to fight those who would forget. Because if we forget, we are guilty, we are accomplices.

And then I explained to him how naive we were, that the world did know and remain silent. And that is why I swore never to be silent whenever and wherever human beings endure suffering and humiliation. We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant. Wherever men or women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must – at that moment – become the center of the universe.

Of course, since I am a Jew profoundly rooted in my peoples’ memory and tradition, my first response is to Jewish fears, Jewish needs, Jewish crises. For I belong to a traumatized generation, one that experienced the abandonment and solitude of our people. It would be unnatural for me not to make Jewish priorities my own: Israel, Soviet Jewry, Jews in Arab lands … But there are others as important to me. Apartheid is, in my view, as abhorrent as anti-Semitism. To me, Andrei Sakharov‘s isolation is as much of a disgrace as Josef Biegun’s imprisonment. As is the denial of Solidarity and its leader Lech Walesa‘s right to dissent. And Nelson Mandela‘s interminable imprisonment.

There is so much injustice and suffering crying out for our attention: victims of hunger, of racism, and political persecution, writers and poets, prisoners in so many lands governed by the Left and by the Right. Human rights are being violated on every continent. More people are oppressed than free. And then, too, there are the Palestinians to whose plight I am sensitive but whose methods I deplore. Violence and terrorism are not the answer. Something must be done about their suffering, and soon. I trust Israel, for I have faith in the Jewish people. Let Israel be given a chance, let hatred and danger be removed from her horizons, and there will be peace in and around the Holy Land.

Yes, I have faith. Faith in God and even in His creation. Without it no action would be possible. And action is the only remedy to indifference: the most insidious danger of all. Isn’t this the meaning of Alfred Nobel’s legacy? Wasn’t his fear of war a shield against war?

There is much to be done, there is much that can be done. One person – a Raoul Wallenberg, an Albert Schweitzer, one person of integrity, can make a difference, a difference of life and death. As long as one dissident is in prison, our freedom will not be true. As long as one child is hungry, our lives will be filled with anguish and shame. What all these victims need above all is to know that they are not alone; that we are not forgetting them, that when their voices are stifled we shall lend them ours, that while their freedom depends on ours, the quality of our freedom depends on theirs.

This is what I say to the young Jewish boy wondering what I have done with his years. It is in his name that I speak to you and that I express to you my deepest gratitude. No one is as capable of gratitude as one who has emerged from the kingdom of night. We know that every moment is a moment of grace, every hour an offering; not to share them.

Lesson 15: Compare and Contrast with the Biography "We Were There, Too!"

The Target Skill in this lesson is Compare and Contrast

Concept Question: Are the details in my Venn Diagram important for the story or the characters in it, or are they just trivia (true, but not important to the story or characters)?

Lesson 15 Grab-And-Go Resources

From Journeys:

Compare and Contrast The selection "We Were There, Too!" allows readers to compare and contrast the experiences of two young people involved in the American Revolution.  As you read, look for text evidence that helps you think about how the situations, motives, and traits of the two subjects are alike and different.  Use a graphic organizer like this one to record similarities and differences between the two patriots.

When you compare and contrast the actions of two or more historical figures, you learn more about each one's character.  The things they do and the choices they make show who they are inside.

In "We Were There, Too!" Joseph Plumb Martin and Sybil Ludington are similar in that they act on behalf of their country.  Their behaviors are alike in other ways, too, but they also have some important differences.

Recording text evidence in a Venn diagram like the one above will help you keep track of similarities and differences between Joseph Plumb Martin and Sybil Ludington.

When you compare and contrast two people, look for text evidence that shows how the two characters are different about the same topic.  For example, if the text says that Jack likes chocolate ice-cream and that Jill likes strawberry ice-cream, that would be a good piece of text evidence to use in your Venn diagram because it tells us that Jack and Jill like different kinds of ice cream.  In this example, we can compare how they are different about the topic of favorite ice cream.

However, if the text says that Jack like dogs, but does not say anything about what animals Jill likes, you cannot say that Jack likes dogs and Jill doesn't.  Unless the text says that Jill does not like dogs, you cannot assume that just because the text says Jack likes dogs and doesn't say anything about Jill, that Jill must not like dogs.  When you compare and contrast, the things that are different MUST be differences about the same topic.

The plight is really unexpected, and the monster and mazes become very intense.

What is myth?

A myth is a story that is repeatedly told to provide justification for why something is the way it is. For instance, a creation myth is a narrative that describes how the world came to be.

An often-tradition account of supposedly historical occurrences that reveals some of a people's worldview or explains a custom, belief, or natural phenomenon.

In order to present a new story, the plot of "Of Monsters and Mazes" reinterprets the myth of Theseus and the Minotaur.

The situation is somewhat surprising, and the intensity of the monster and mazes increases.

Thus, this is all about monster and mazes.

yes The United States of America has eight percent of the forested area of the world - some 770 million acres (312 million hectares). Fourteen percent of the world's growing stock (including 18 percent of the softwood growing stock) is in the United States. This country cuts about one fifth of the timber removed from the world's forests. Although some forest products are exported, most of this cut is for domestic consumption. The United States also imports more forest products than she exports. Imports are primarily softwood lumber, newsprint paper, wood pulp and pulpwood

Yes because deforestation is very prevalent in today’s society and is killing off new species every single day. So much paper is wasted every day that so many trees are being wasted in the process as well.
