I teach history in one of the most diverse high schools in all of New Jersey. We have every type of race, religion, and ethnicity under the sun at my public high school. We also have students from all economic backgrounds as well. Students come from homes ranging in the hundreds of thousands while others recently moved from the projects. Despite the diversity at my school when you walk around the hallways you often see the students hanging out with their own group. I want to show my students an extreme example of what can happen when you start thinking of "us" versus "Them". I want my students to read Elie Weisel's "Night."
