How can an individual bring social awareness to atrocities like the Holocaust?
 
 
 
Dear Journal,
 
 
When something bad happens, people react. Sometimes they are happy or sometimes they are annoyed or sad. There are courageous people that stand up for what they believe in and there are people that stay silent and watch what happens from the stands. There have been so many tragedies in our world such as September 11, 2001, the Triangle fire, and the Holocaust. There are so many things we as  individuals can do to bring awareness and support for the victims of these terrible tragedies.
 
 
For example, we as bystanders could start protests to let other people know about the problem at hand, if a country or area is in need, we can send volunteers to go and give them food and clothing, or we can start a social uproar on the issue to maybe get the message spread.
 
 
The news is a great way to get an important message across to a huge audience. As a viewer of the news, you can email or send a letter to the news about the specific topic you want to be addressed.

There were six or so groups and we had to each take turns going in the middle of the circle to discuss our views on the topics and listen to other's insight. The topics are as follows: whether Jack was an effective leader and were the kids bad before they got on the island or did the island turn them bad and bring the worst out of them. During the discussion, there was a lot of controversy and good points. During the discussion about whether Jack was an effective leader or not, there was a lot of talk about Hitler and his reign on Germany. People compared Jack to Hitler because Hitler made his soldiers do bad things and Jack also made the boys that followed him do bad things. For instance, Jack made the boys kill Simon and go against Ralph to leave him alone. He ran his "tribe" as a dictatorship. Not get...
