To remember what effect it had on 'us' is less important than what effect it had on those who experienced it.

Why isn't the number 11 million stated instead of 6 million for the holocaust?
The Nazis called their genocide of the Jews the 'Final Solution [of the Jewish Question]'. This term was, understandably, considered offensive by others, and gradually in the late 1970s the term 'the Holocaust' came to be adopted by historians. This term referred specifically to the estimated death toll of six million Jews.For the other groups massacred the usual term was '[victims of] Nazi atrocities'.However, when the U.S. embarked on creating the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum some other groups demanded the right to be included, and the figure (for all victims of Nazis atrocities) was hastily upped to 11 million.The figure of 11 million is most unsatifactory as there is no explantion, even in outline, of how it was arrived at. If it supposed to represent the victims of Nazi genocide it is too high, and if it is supposed to include all victims of Nazi atrocities, it is too low.There are, in effect, two competing definitions of the Holocaust.

How did the book Night by Elie Wiesel change America's view on the Holocaust or does ayone know any sites where I can find the before and after Night views of the Holocaust?
Are you sure that the publication of Night in English (in 1960s) had such a far-reaching effect? Before the late 1960s the Holocaust was not widely discussed. It was known, of course, but generally talked about as the worst of a whole number of Nazi atrocities. It did not have anything like its current significance. I don't think the sea change can be attributed to Elie Wiesel, though he played a part.
