How has Elie Wiesel made an impact in the world?

Elie is a hero, really a hero. For all that he was through and did. For his story the courage to write it and remember the horrors of the Holocaust. He shared the mistakes and the actocites of the holocaust-he was not scared to write it what really happened to him. Not fluff and sugar caoted candy but the real honest to goodness things that really happened. He has preserved that time forver and made us aware of the sufferings of the millions of imprisioned in the camps. He made us aware so we cxan stop all genocide-like that NOW happening in Dafur, Sudan. If we are supposeed to be remembering all those millions of peoples' promises then why are you and i not doing a thing to help those? Why? We cannot forget...and they are suffering that makes us liars to ourselves to the dead of the holocaust and to the people of the genocide, which we have betrayed so brutally. TAke a stand...it is now that we must act.
