12 June 1929 | A German Jewish girl, Anne Frank, was born in Frankfurt.

In 1942 on her 13th birthday she received an empty diary. She perished in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in 1945.

'Human greatness does not lie in wealth or power, but in character & goodness.' (A.Frank)

@auschwitzmuseum
What a timelessly valid quote - more important than ever in these days / times - written by a young and yet already so wise woman who (like millions of other persecuted people) had to die solely because of the Nazis' racial mania.

We must never forget her fate ... 🖤🕯️

@auschwitzmuseum Her father was the only member of their family who survived the war.

@auschwitzmuseum I have not read her diary in many years, so I purchased a hardcover copy this past week. I believe that by remembering people, we honor them and they live on.
