After reading the book “Night” I wanted to know why people try to put others down to make them feel better about themselves. I’m writing this paper because I don’t like that people are stereotypical and racist. This topic doesn’t really interest me, it just makes me curious as to why people are like this. Did something happen to them to make them hate on others? Are they just like that? Reading about the holocaust and how they were treated really made me want to why people treat others like that.

It doesn’t make sense that it’s only the jewish people who are being ripped away from everything they know. Why does Hitler hate them so much? What made Hitler hate the jewish? I am going to try my hardest to answer all of these questions because they might not only be interesting to me. I wonder who thought of making the camps. Was the only reason to make the camps to hurt the jewish people? Did the people who came up with the camps or were involved in hurting those people get punishments? Like Hitler, did he get any consequences for hurting the jewish people for no reason? If he did, what were they? I also
