Description
Anne Frank + you
Discussion Event: Hastings as my home
What creates a sense of belonging and what do communities do when it is under threat?
Explore the issues of identity, belonging and safety in the local area.
This event is linked to the Anne Frank + You exhibition which is on view at Sussex Coast College,
Hastings, throughout June 2011.
Anne Frank, a young Jewish girl, and her family hid in a secret room in Amsterdam to protect themselves from capture during WWII. Anne is famous for keeping a diary that reveals her amazing story.
The aims of the event will be to:
- discuss key themes relating to the exhibition including, kindness and friendship, racism and prejudice, identity, inclusion and exclusion, valuing democracy and freedom, moral courage/responsibility and conflict
- explore immigration policy
