and the right to own property. Others were denied
public trials and the lower class were looked upon

What would you claim to be the defining moment of
the 20 th century? Would it be World War I or II,
the great depression, the McCarthy trials, the
hippie generation, the civil rights movement, or
those crazy 90 s? Well, you may have your own
opinions, but I believe that the 20 th century

Life is defined as human existence, relationships,
or activities in general. When life is taken from
a person their outlook on life becomes skewed.

life, a negative mind-set is most likely going to
be portrayed through that persons actions. In Elie

On the road of life, many trials arise that one
must overcome to make his or her life feel
complete. In Langston Hughes poem, Mother to Son,
these trials are a subject of concern for one
