We often hear news of wars and violence around the world, realizing that many people suffer and live in fear. How does this make you feel? During World War II, Anne Frank, a 13-year-old Jewish-German, was saddened by the suffering and death of millions of Jews and people from other nations, known as the Shoah. Anne, also a victim, is now a symbol of unity for people of all backgrounds. Her message of hope and the fight for freedom lives on through her diary, inspiring resistance to discrimination, war, and oppression.
