Anne Frank in the World: 1929-1945
The Commission brings to Georgia the internationally acclaimed, award winning exhibition Anne Frank in the World: 1929-1945. Using over 6,000 photographs and 8,000 words of text, this exhibition tells the story of Anne Frank- a young, popular and precocious girl- and her family, following them from freedom in 1920's Germany, to exile in the Netherlands, to hiding in a secret annex above her father's business in Amsterdam, and finally, to death in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. Following them against the background of the events that culminated in World War II, the occupation of the Netherlands and the judgments of the International Military Tribunal in Nuremberg, the exhibition enables children to experience in a more personal way, the horrors of the past and the hope for the future. It shows the terrible costs that unbridled prejudice, hatred and discrimination can impose upon a nation and its people. It also shows the wonderful, almost miraculous changes which even a small number of people can bring about when they embrace tolerance, promote diversity, and persist in seeing the goodness in humanity.
The Commission will proudly present the Anne Frank exhibit at Kennesaw State University-Kennesaw, Georgia.
