14. Kraus

Reading this chapter, I was outraged to see how the work and effort among the Jews were worthless. Prisoners weren't acknowledged by how hard they work or how much effort they are putting into. No matter how hard they try, to the German soldiers, Jews were just considered as Jews. They were always treated inhumanly. All the work and effort ended up in executions. They were never acknowledged.

Here is a similar example. Let's say that you have worked hours and hours for a project and you have received a grade that certainly didn't match your precognition, how would you feel? You were not acknowledged of your effort for hours and hours. I would definitely feel mortified. This situation can not be compared to the hardships that the Jews went through, but it can be a comparision somehow. If a piece of project made me feel so mortified and outraged, how would the Jews, who worked so hard and received such treatment, feel?
