Acknowledging that to struggle in all fields of social, religious, political and economic endeavor is human, Professor Wiesel questions what struggle is all about. He distinguishes between struggle for power and struggle against power and agrees with Milan Kundera that the struggle against power is the struggle of memory against forgetting. In particular, Professor Wiesel has wanted the world to know the nature of the survivors’ struggle and tells of his engagement in the struggle for human rights, prioritizing Jewish causes but not exclusively. Professor Wiesel teaches us that the noblest of all struggles are linked to learning a text and that study incites action.
