The Diary of Anne Frank


  Enter your response   A Mega-Prompt   Read published entries

Anne Frank is the author of one of the most famous diaries in history. She was 13 years old in 1942, the year that the Nazis invaded her country (Holland) and attempted to arrest its Jewish citizens. The Franks, because they were Jewish, were forced to hide in a warehouse for two years. During this time, Anne kept a diary, in part, to express her frustrations about having to stay inside and keep absolutely quiet all day.

How would you feel if forced into hiding for two years, not being able to breathe fresh air and participate in any outdoor activities? Why do you think some people are treated poorly, simply because of a different nationality, skin color, culture or beliefs? How can this kind of ignorant behavior among people be changed?
