Hey,
my name is Thomas, I´m 19 years old,and a German fellow at Moment Magazine, a publication that was founded by Elie Wiesel more than 40 years ago.

I´m collecting stories of teenagers (ages 12-19) of all backgrounds for a mini-symposium for our next print issue!

Ari Bloomekatz wrote in The Washington Post, “Wiesel’s legacy in the United States, and in many parts of the world, is not about adults. It’s about children, about teenagers, and his impact on non-Jewish youths everywhere.” For many generations, in school or on their own, teenagers all over the world have learned about the Holocaust by reading Elie Wiesel's seminal memoir, Night.

Moment Magazine wants you, teenagers (ages 12-19) of all backgrounds, to tell us about your own experience reading Night, and how it influenced you.
Tell us your story in 300 words or less; select submissions may be contacted for follow-up interviews.

If you´re interested, then send your submissions or questions to tsiurkus@momentmag.com by August 10, 2016.

Looking forward to hearing from you :)

Best
Thomas
  








For in everything it is no easy task to find the middle ... anyone can get angry—that is easy—or give or spend money; but to do this to the right person, to the right extent, at the right time, with the right motive, and in the right way, that is not for everyone, nor is it easy; wherefore goodness is both rare and laudable and noble.
— Aristotle
