Prior to World War 2 Jewish people were the main family or culture that the Nazi’s been feeding off of and killing approximately 6,000 each day. Which led to 6.5 million Jews dead at the end of the war and a few survivors. Although one of these few survivors was Otto Frank, father of Anne Frank, Diarist of one of the most famous diaries, “The Diary of Anne Frank.” World War 2 was a devastating event that changed how Jews lived because because they were said to be “Divergent.” How I felt about the events covered in the Diary of Anne Frank was dramatically depressing.
Anne Frank was just a young average girl when the Holocaust began. The Franks were forced into hiding when the Nazi leader, Adolf Hitler, demanded all Jews to be eliminated. In fact, many of them were sent to concentration camps to work, or to be gassed to death. The Frank family went into hiding with the Van Daans in a secret Annex in Otto Frank’s workplace. There
During her confinement in the annex Anne often turns to the privacy of her diary to confide in. The diary is a place where“[Anne] can put all of her thoughts, all [her] feelings” (33), which is a luxury many of the other residents in the annex desire. During the play, we witness some of the direct quotes from Anne 's diary. Along with the humour and trivial problems that a teenager would write about, there are poetic and morose segments about her feelings about the holocaust and being trapped in the annex. She writes about being "surrounded by darkness and danger" (40); these sentiments from a 14-year-old girl gives insight to the forcibly accelerated way she grows up under such circumstances.
The 1940s were a crucial time all over the world with hardships and wars going on for years. Within these wars, two little girls that have been apart of it their whole lives, have shared their experiences through a diary and a book of stories. The Diary of Anne Frank is about a young jewish girl named Anne Frank, who has to go into hiding with her family in order to not get caught and taken away by the Nazis in Amsterdam, and while in hiding, records her experiences and thoughts into her diary. Farewell to Manzanar is a book based on a girl named Jeanne Wakatsuki who is seven years old at the time, and gets taken away with her family to Manzanar encampments, as the U.S. government doesn’t want to risk any Japanese Americans possibly giving up information to the Japanese as they are at war with them. Anne Frank and Jeanne Wakatsuki have many similarities and differences throughout their lifetimes on the run from the war.
Sounds of Resistance In 1939, WWII began when the Nazi Party invaded Poland, cousin six to nine million Jewish people to fear there live, this fear began when all citizens had to register with the government and the Jews had to wear the star of David. Second, the Jews were forced into ghettos. Third, they were in concentration and death camps. “The Diary of Anne Frank” violins of hope, “ Resistance during the Holocaust.”
The war has a huge impact on Amsterdam and food becomes deficient and crime increases. Anne Frank writes about her personal feelings as well as the up and down relationship she has with the adults in the secret annex. She often writes about her mother who Anne feels lacks in her affection towards her. Anne is not very fond of the van Daan’s as well. Anne does not mention her sister much in the diary entries but when she does she describes her with words like pretty,smart, and acceptable.
During World War II, the German Reich marched across the entire continent of Europe. During the Holocaust, many people became discouraged and lost hope in the future of society. However, the excerpts from “Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl,” written by herself, and “Hitler Youth: Growing up in Hitler’s Shadow” by Susan Campbell Bartoletti, prove that being positive and persevering is the best thing that someone can do. Whether hiding from the Nazis or already taken by them, the best response to have during conflict and chaos is maintaining a positive outlook on life and to persist through difficult times.

Dealing With Conflict and Hard Times When it comes to dealing with tough times such as going to internment camps or hiding from Nazi soldiers so that they aren’t taken to centration camps, there are three important questions that come into play; What motivates people to move through hard times and moments? , What can people do to help others going through tough problems?, and Who can people go to to help them through tough times or conflict? I think that people can best respond to conflict by staying strong through courageousness and always having people in their life to talk to.
The authenticity of ‘Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl’ has aroused much controversy in the society.

The effects of war are devastating not only to people but also to the environment. For example, in the story I am Malala, during the take over by the Taliban, many schools were being destroyed.

For two years, her and 7 others hid in solitary.
