Overview

Developed by the Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect.

In times of great despair, messages of hope and inspiration remain timeless. The dramatic performance of Letters from Anne and Martin, brought to you by The Rotary Club of Maitland, parallels the words written by two of history’s most prolific activists.

Born during the same year, living on continents 5,000 miles apart, Anne Frank penned messages in her diary echoing Martin Luther King Jr.’s “Letters from Birmingham Jail.”

This dramatic performance will inspire you and challenge the way you perceive discrimination.

The accompanying traveling exhibition: “Let Me Be Myself: The Life Story of Anne Frank”, developed by the Anne Frank House and is sponsored in North America by the Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect, can be seen through January 4, 2020 at the Holocaust Memorial Resource & Education Center of Florida.

This project is made possible by a grant from Duke Energy through United Arts of Central Florida.

*Please be advised: In this presentation, a derogatory racial epithet used against Dr. King is discussed.
