They worked tirelessly to broaden my perspectives and those of my classmates. Together they shared the magical ability to create a sanctuary of love and learning for young people in what can sometimes seem to be an unloving and mystifying world. In large part due to my experience with them, I am working as a kindergarten teacher in my city to pass on the unconditional love and learning they shared with me.<\/p>\n<p>One of my favorite things about Elie Wiesel was the unexpected joy he brought to our community. Upon hearing I was in his class, many people gleefully shared with me that they had once held a door for the little old man. They often described the experience as one of profound wonder. Truly every moment I shared with him felt so amazing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right\"><strong>\u2014Luke McKinnon \u201915 <\/strong><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][vc_column_text]Elie Wiesel and Carolyn Johnston fundamentally shaped the way I see myself in the world.
