#NotSilent: join the social media campaign to remember Anne Frank

Article

As today marks the 70th anniversary of Anne Frank, instead of having a minutes silence for it, the Anne Frank's trust thought it would be fitting for them to read out sections from her book and post to on social media with the hashtag 'Not Silent.' This seemed very fitting as Anne Frank had to be silent, when in hiding, but used writing as her way to let things out. 

Wineman stressed the importance of Frank’s testimony: “At her age, she was absolutely brilliant: to speak the way she spoke about everything, and to keep her courage the way she did … she would have gone on to be a great fighter and a great human being.”
