The Ignored Lesson of Anne Frank

I do not like the sad ending in the story because it is marked by the death of weak, harmless and vulnerable people. The story brings back bad memories of the inhumane acts that were done during the Holocaust. At the time, proponents of the Nazi regime smoked out Jews from their hideouts, killing them mercilessly. Although a good number of people died, some survived. It is sad to note that some of the people who ended up as dead bodies had a chance to escape, which they failed to utilize. The story talks about a family that failed to prepare for danger and every member got killed in the end. The franks valued their family bonds too much, and by turning a blind eye to the imminent danger that surrounded them, they failed to prepare for the worse and ended up dying as a consequence. The sad ending also reveals much about the ignorance that has plagued modern society for many years. Like Anne, members of the society wanted to believe that every man has a good heart. When the mystery of the Holocaust was unraveled, people claimed that it was just “horrible propaganda.” For a certainty, the sad ending of the story is unlikable. The book is a great insight on what happened during World War II and how people struggled from Nazis, the same way people in Ukraine struggle today from Putin's invasion as his actions and war intentions remind the Holocaust against Ukrainian people. That is a sad experience for the whole world.
