The Attack on Elie Wiesel

As someone who has been deeply impacted by the writings of Elie Wiesel, especially his memoir of surviving the Holocaust, Night, I was deeply disturbed to learn that he had been attacked this week. Although the Nobel Prize winner was apparently unhurt, events could have turned out differently and tragically. It is just one more sign--as if we needed another one--that Anti-Semitism and its counterpart Holocaust denial is alive and well.

Peace,

Chase
