Anne Frank Adversity

Anne Frank has had so much things that she struggled with in hiding. She couldn't live like an average thirteen year old, having to sit around in her house for hours. And yet she still had the mind set like one, she couldn't go with her friends, she couldn't see her favorite bands anymore, she couldn't even talk about things with her family throughout the day. And yet I haven't gone through this the same exact way, I am empathetic towards her. My mom doesn't often let me go to a friend's house, and even though it is not much, I feel ten times worst knowing that Anne couldn't do even half of what I am able to do, she has gone through so much adversity and a lot of people don't realize how much she had gone through and still try to live her life like a teenager.

Holocaust Review for the Upstanders

People were afraid to stand up, even though most fates were concealed. They didn't want to go through dying and were scared to stand up for everyone. Those who stood up realized that it was over and might as well take a chance, they knew that they were destined to die so they might have well just stood up for everyone else to live a little longer. I don't think I would have made impact even if I tried, with all the torture and strict punishments, I would have not survived to see my myself standing up for hundreds. So I think even if I tried, I would need a strong force like an army to charge through Nazi's in order to be an upstander who succeeded.
