'If only I can be myself, I'll be satisfied. I know that I'm a woman, a woman with inner strength and a great deal of courage!’ wrote #AnneFrank on 11 April 1944 in her diary. Today, 11 October, is the United Nations International #DayOfTheGirl

Banning books, like the graphic adaptation of the #diary of #AnneFrank , because of certain passages is a missed opportunity to introduce young people to Anne Frank’s life story and the history of the #Holocaust

The call for Int. Holocaust Remembrance Alliance Grant applications is now open!
The Grant Program co-funds impactful projects that: Safeguard the record of the Holocaust, the genocide of the Roma or Counter distortion. Organizations from anywhere in the world can apply!

#Onthisday 6 September 1944, #AnneFrank and the other people from the Secret Annex arrive at concentration and extermination camp #Auschwitz -Birkenau. Men and women were separated immediately: it was the last time Otto Frank saw his wife and daughters.⁠

Onthisday in 1980, #OttoFrank died 91 yrs old. In an interview he said: ‘I am almost ninety now and my strength is slowly fading. But the mission that Anne passed on, keeps giving me new strength - to fight for reconciliation and for human rights across the world.’⁠

#Onthisday 4 August 1944, #AnneFrank and the other people in hiding were discovered and arrested. For more than years they have been living with the constant fear of discovery. Now, without any warning, the moment had come. Anne's father, Otto Frank, was the only one to survive

#Onthisday 22 July 1941, #AnneFrank was captured on film. She is leaning out of the window to get a good look of the young couple next door, who are getting married that day. At that time, the Frank family lived at Merwedeplein in Amsterdam.
