Mans Inhumanity

Over the centuries, nothing has caused more than pain and paroxysm for man than man himself. Through war, hate crimes, and random acts of violence, the fear of the incompatible and unknown has made itself known in human nature. The novel Night, the picture show Schindlers List and the article A Tortured Legacy are wholly exercisings of this. Through the suffering of the Jews at the hands of the Germans, there is no clearer example of mans inhumanity to man.
