    1039 Words  | 3 Pages

    Cultural appropriation has been a controversial subject of debate for decades; hence it is not something “new” as society likes to think. The issue of cultural appropriation seems to have recently emerged in the 21st century because technology has allowed information to be more widespread and easily accessed.

She first wrote “I hope I will be able to confide everything to you, as I have never been able to confide in anyone, and I hope you will be a great source of comfort and support,” it is established that Anne, although a very social young girl, felt that she could not confide in her friends.

All of these serve as ‘reminders.’ But these reminders have us looking backwards, and we miss what's going on around us” (Why "Remembering" the Holocaust Does More Harm Than Good). They think remembering the tragic events that occurred, forces people to exhibit the hatred and Anti-Semitism that still exist today. By exhibiting this hatred they suppose that it will bring the negative energy back into the world. Others believe that focusing on the tragedy ...

  • The Diary of Anne Frank Book Review
