The holocost was the sence less killing of over 6 million Jews and 5 million other Europeans under the command of Adolf Hilter.

And in the morning By John Wilson on Prezi

9 sentence paragraph the lotery

In Shirley Jackson's short story "The Lottery",  irony is illistrtated through the community event of the lottery. Initally the reader begins toassume that the lottery is an event wher something is won, but as the story progresses, one realizes that the lottery is a death sentence.After all of the children had gathered stones and were playing the men gathered as well and the women were joking with each other and smiling instead of laughing. “They greeted one another and exchanged bits of gossip as they went to join their children, and the children came reluctantly, having to be called four or five times.” The story starts off to be a nice day and everyone is happy until later when more unfortunate events happen. As the day goes on and they draw from the box and Tess Hutchinson gets the black dot everything takes a turn for the worse. “Tessie, Mr. Summers said. There was a pause and then Mr. Summers looked at Bill Hutchinson and Bill unfolded his paper and showed it. It was blank.” This results in Tessie getting the black dot and being stoned to death. This story shows that in the end the lottery is not a good thing and that every time there is one in this town that someone dies.
