euthanasia was a very interesting concept. the real meaning was to have a non painful death but in the Holocaust it was a "mercy" killing. I did like the term righteous among the nations because it was to the people who would be brave enough to save jews.

Part I of Ruth Minsky Sender's The Cage explores the experiences Riva and her siblings have while living in the ghetto. Part II of the personal memoir will unveil her horrors in the camps.

What portion of Part I stood out to you in your reading? Provide a page number and short analysis of the excerpt.

The letter Riva wrote to her mother about how she feels she let down her family. on page 70 and 71 I thought that it showed how much she cares for her family even though she is only a teenager and is sick.

Ms.Kaser I try my best in this class and this book is really good, but, this blog is slightly offensive to me I am Jewish and most of my family of was killed off in the Holocaust my Great Grandma would get letters from her family in Hugary to save them but she couldn't do anything, my great grandma and graet grandpa ran a cleaning company in America taking turns with relatives going from Hungary to America. Knowing my families past i do not want to do this blog. I'm sorry, but, this isn't comfortable for me.
