This journal entry invites reflection on a time of perseverance amidst challenges, allowing us to explore resilience in the context of historical suffering, specifically during the Holocaust and at Auschwitz. The class discussion will delve into themes of guilt and the experience of inmates who faced extreme adversity. As we read Chapter 1 and complete guided notes, we will examine the harsh realities of life in concentration camps, including forced labor, inadequate living conditions, and the psychological battles faced by those who sought to survive.
