Anne Frank

This is the only known video that Ann Frank was ever in. Apparently the couple getting married lived next door and Anne was hanging out of her window. That family has been sitting on this video for nearly a century. Amazing. The Anne Frank House released this like 2 days ago.



Here is the article that lead me to the video: http://www.kansascity.com/stargazing/story/1486550.html

When you take this out of historical context it is just a little girl looking out the window and being playful. Like I'm guessing kids all over the country are doing right now. I'm sure if you were to walk into their world at that moment and tried to warn them about the direction of things, that you'd have been laughed at in the face.... My point is, things are relatively ok right now, but at any moment something could change that with one swoop. I wonder how different this Anne Frank was from the one that who wrote the diary. I'm sure the events changed the most fundamental parts of her personality.
