“It's really a wonder that I haven't dropped all my ideals because they seem so absurd and impossible to carry out. Yet I keep them because, in spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart.” ― Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl

Millie Perkins leaving the preview of her film THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK, 1958

I understood Anne Frank and I knew who she was. Her story hit me in my heart and soul, and there was no question in my mind that I would do it and do it right. She was exactly who I had been as a teenager. Like Anne, I was the one who got into trouble and opened my mouth. People would always say I was crazy, angry and feisty. I fought with everyone for what I wanted, and Anne did that too. When I met Otto Frank, we sat together and had a moving experience. He was so intelligent and truly sensitive and kind. I just kept thinking that, "If he doesn't like me, I won't do the part." At one point I was sitting with my thumb clenched between my index and middle fingers. He looked down at me and I looked at him and he was making the same fist. He said that Anne used to sit like that all the time. The Diary of Anne Frank inspires us to make ourselves kinder than we are. We are not kind to each other anymore. We have to become kinder to people who need it. - MILLIE PERKINS

“The Diary of Anne Frank” (originally “The Diary of a Young Girl”) was published on June 25, 1947, two years after Anne’s death in a concentration camp.

Quote

The line most often quoted from Frank’s diary—“In spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart”—is often called “inspiring,” by which we mean that it flatters us. It makes us feel forgiven for those lapses of our civilization that allow for piles of murdered girls—and if those words came from a murdered girl, well, then, we must be absolved, because they must be true. That gift of grace and absolution from a murdered Jew (exactly the gift, it is worth noting, at the heart of Christianity) is what millions of people are so eager to find in Frank’s hiding place, in her writings, in her “legacy.”

The Nazis only existed from the start of the 1930s to the mid-40s. Palestinians have been targeted by first Britain then Israel for over a literal century, with the very real possibility of Palestinian casualties eclipsing the Holocaust death toll if Israel is allowed to continue.

"Many victims on both sides" insinuates Israel and Palestine engaging in equally-footed mutually-assured destruction, not the former killing tenfold more citizens than the latter.

If Israel's mass geno/infanticide of Gaza and the West Bank is not considered "systemic extermination", I don't know what is.

The Anne Frank House gaslighting the world with complete disregard to the realities of millions of Gazan kids and teens who are living through the same fear for their lives as Anne when she wrote her diary is possibly the most disgusting display of hypocrisy imaginable.

Israel completely failed to learn from The Diary of Anne Frank, and in repeating it, has doomed Palestine.

I dont remember posting about this before, but back in 2015, when I first started my Instagram account under the same username (yoursannefrank), the most amazing thing happened!

The actress, Hannah Taylor-Gordon, who played Anne Frank in the 'Anne Frank: The Whole Story (2001)' movie, discovered my Instagram page, and shared some tweets about it!

Links to the tweets:

Why are they wanting to take Anne Frank out?

Okay, let me lay this out for you because it's a whole entire situation...

One day I'm just in the children's room hanging out with the kids, helping them pick stuff out, printing off coloring pages, trying to get them to pick up their candy wrappers...children's desk stuff. A parent comes in and seems fine, mills around, browses and then takes a book off the shelf and wheels around so fast I thought he was gonna fall over. And she says:

OH NO SIR, UNACCEPTABLE.

I think she's talking to her son, because I know she has one and I know he's in there because we were just talking about dinosaurs and planets. So I ignore her, until she stomps over to where I am and looks at me like I'm a huge fucking idiot.

I ask her what I can help her with and she says "you can get this out of the children's room" and SHOVES "The Diary of Anne Frank" at me. Presses it INTO me like she's trying to hide it in my guts.

I tell her I'm not going to, but I will move it to YA. This is the compromise I'm willing to make with her. She says "I know you're Jewish and that's FINE," (thanks?) "but this has a ton of inappropriate content in it."

I don't know if you've read it, but it really doesn't. I would say that maybe it could be upsetting for very young kids, it's definitely of a sensitive nature and subject matter, but she's really acting like we have the Kama Sutra in the story pit. I tell her again I am willing to move it to YA, but I'm not taking it out of circulation and she gets huffy and leaves.

The next day there's an email from the system head that says we may have to remove the book due to "numerous parent complaints". The new head of our branch and I sent an email back saying that we were not going to. That we would move it, but it was staying. I find this book to be essential reading...children are not stupid, they need to know what goes on in the world, it's THE most gentle Holocaust related book I can think of and we really don't need to pretend this shit didn't happen. How can we raise people who will prevent another one if we don't let them learn about the first one?

Anyway...many, just so many, emails later it's sounding very serious and so we decided to get the other branches in the system on board because we know they all have copies also and now we have everyone organized and ready to go on strike if we have to.

And now we wait...

New Life. Difference. Change.

“The person who attained inner strength and integrity often may not be as successful as his unscrupulous neighbor but, he will have security, judgement, and objectivity which will make him much less vulnerable to changing fortunes and opinions of others and will in many areas enhance his ability for constructive work.”

Erich Fromm Psychoanalysis and Religion p. 75

"I see the world being slowly transformed into a wilderness; I hear the approaching thunder that, one day, will destroy us too. I feel the suffering of millions. And yet, when I look up at the sky, I somehow feel that everything will change for the better, that this cruelty too shall end, that peace and tranquility will return once more"

- Anne Frank

Book 26 of the 50 book challenge. The Last Secret of the Secret Annex by Joop Van Wijk- Voskuijl and Jeroen De Bruyn. The authors were mainly writing about Bep Voskuijl who was one of the helpers for the Secret Annex but they also talked about the other helpers, plus Anne, Margot, Edith and Otto Frank and some about the other family and the dentist who were hidden in the building. It’s a very good book and one of Bep’s sisters was involved with Nazis during the war and may have been the one who turned them in, but nobody knows for certain who are still alive. It’s a really good book. Joop is the youngest son of Bep born in 1949. If you’re interested at all in the Frank family or read Anne’s diary, you may like this book.

This is a really unique and valuable interview, Anne Frank's diary is one of the most unforgettable stories ever written and having her father saying how much impact it left around the world after it was published is just a proof of how moving it was.
