“The Wave” by Todd Strasser
1. David tries to convince Lauria to forget the events that took place in Nazi. Germany:
“Forget about it. It happened once and the world learned its lesson. It’ll never happen again.”
Do you agree?
I disagree because you can’t forget something that happened so fast only after a while when new generations start people will start to forget about the past and think into the future. For example, when the twin towers blew up people still have memorials on the day that it happened.
Should we try to forget evil events, and trust in the goodness of human nature?
Well like I said before it’s hard to forget about bad or evil things that has happened to our world. But we should still trust in our human nature and what we do for it to occur.
Is evil and outside force, or are we all capable of evil acts?
I think that we are all capable of evil acts because the people that start these acts were and still are people like us. Like in The Wave, Adolf Hitler hides underground for many of the years during WW2 because so many people wanted him dead. But finally he couldn’t take the running and hiding so Adolf Hitler shot himself in the head and his wife with a pistol on April 30, 1945, shortly before the invading Soviet Army captured his bunker in Berlin. Here is a site that says so.
