The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The first Congress add a Bill of Rights to the constitution to outline the rights of individuals.

During the Constitutional Convention, federalists and anti-federalists debated on their respective arguments. The federalists -led by Alexander Hamilton- favored a strong central government. The antifederalists -led by Thomas Jefferson- did not agree on the idea of having a strong central government that limited the sovereignty of the states, considering that a risk of a government becoming a tyrant. Antifederalists considered that a Bill of Rights that protected the citizen was necessary to limit the power of the government. That is when James Madison drafted the Bill of Rights.

Answer:

The Bill of rights are the first 10 Amendments of our constitution. The reason that congress implemented them is because without those 10 Amendments there is no security against a tyrannical government.

At Auschwitz, Elie and his father meet a relative who asks if they know anything
laiz [17]

Answer:

Eliezer and his father meet a distant relative, Stein of Antwerp, who wants news of his wife Reizel and his children. Eliezer's father does not recognize the man since he was generally more interested in community matters in his old life, and Eliezer lies to the man, telling him that his family is doing well. Stein weeps with joy at the news. He continues to visit them for the next few weeks and occasionally brings them extra bread. He is thin and dried up, but he says that he is kept alive by the thought that his family is still alive. When a transport arrives from Antwerp, however, he discovers the truth about his family, and Eliezer never sees Stein again.
