Letter from Eli to Elie regarding Holocaust research and the Warsaw Ghetto uprising
Elie Wiesel Digital Archive
Letter ·
February 11, 1983
This letter, dated February 11, 1983, from the United States Holocaust Memorial Council, is addressed to Elie from Eli. The author first discusses an issue with an inaudible tape related to a speech on the Warsaw Ghetto uprising and suggests that Meed deliver the speech at an upcoming 'Gathering.' The letter then requests Elie's immediate response on two critical matters. Firstly, it proposes a study of the Oranienburg and Sachsenhausen concentration camps, focusing on the "reductive process of dehumanization" that began between 1933 and 1939. Secondly, it highlights the overwhelming volume of materials pertaining to the Ghetto uprising and the urgent need to decide on a research direction, specifically mentioning newspapers, letters, and diaries. Finally, Eli informs Elie about the inclusion of an excerpt from "And The World was Silent" in a booklet for "Remembrance Days," expressing hope for its timely publication.

Elie Wiesel writes to President Barack Obama on humanitarian grounds, urging him to pardon Jonathan Pollard. Wiesel acknowledges that Pollard's actions were wrong and deserved punishment, but argues that his 25-year imprisonment is excessively harsh, exceeding that of any Soviet spy in history. He appeals to President Obama's compassion, highlighting Pollard's desire to go to Israel, and asks for his release.
