The Holocaust based texts Night by Elie Wiesel and the film the Last Days produced by Steven Spielberg, are well thought out examples of the young struggling while turning their backs on their youth. All of these examples showcase the struggle teens and young children faced during their time in ghettos and camps. In dire circumstances, these texts argue that Holocaust children are forced to abandon their youth.

Luba Frederick, a holocaust survivor, answered “To die was easy.”, when discussing the tragic and horrible events of the holocaust. In the Nazi concentration camps, life was miserable. Jews were oppressed by Nazi’s and forced to do their dirty work. Families, jobs, dreams, were nothing more than an illusion as cruel and inhumane treatment replaced them. People felt hopeless and looked to death as an option. Many were intrigued with the idea of death, since it was easier to give up rather than choosing to continue. Majority of people stopped eating, gave up their religious faiths and hope, welcoming the darkness to embrace them. Surviving was a constant struggle for these people and the only way to overcome it was the acceptance of death.

In Night by Elie Weisel, his father fails to give an account of what he heard at the council meeting so therefore nobody knows what’s going on.

A dystopian society can be accurately described as an abject habitation in which people live dissatisfied lives under total control of the government. As terrible as dystopias are, there have been many instances of such societies in the past, and a copious amount of them are found in our current time. Although it may seem that mankind would learn from past experiences and be able to prevent the formation of dystopias, all failed endeavors at utopia, in turn, lead to dystopia. A prime example of this is found in the novel Night, by Elie Wiesel. The story recounts the Holocaust, a mass genocide of Jews conducted by Adolf Hitler, who believed he could create a utopia by basically eradicating a religious group. This inhumane act created a dystopia which was extremely disparate from our modern day society. Yet, there are still apparent similarities that can be found in any community, which maintain order within. Elie’s dystopia and our present society share the large factors of government, media, and labor, but, the approach to each of these ideas is what sets our lives apart.

As shown through the actions and words of characters in Night, compassion, the sympathetic pity for the suffering or misfortune of others is critical to the human experience because it enables humans to empathize with each other, empathizing which allows us to feel the need to assist others which can often be vital for survival.
