Google Honors Anne Frank's Life With Touching Doodles

 

On the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the publication of the tragic diary of Anne Frank, a Jewish girl from Germany who, after Adolf Hitler came to power, was sent to concentration camps and died of typhus there, Google dedicated doodles to the Holocaust victim. They depict moments in the life of a little Jewish woman, which she described in her infamous diary.

Doodles have been launched in over 25 countries including Germany, USA, UK and Ukraine. In addition, Google released Google Trends statistics showing Anne Frank search trends around the world to show users' interest in the topic.

"Anne Frank" is one of the top 60 search topics related to Jewish culture, and the house in Amsterdam, where the girl and her family hid from the Nazis, is "googled" more often than the Van Gogh Museum, also located in the capital of the Netherlands.

The doodles were created by Google Doodle art director Toka Mayer. The German illustrator said she tried to put her full sense of responsibility in preserving the memory of the Holocaust into the images.

Representatives of the Anne Frank Fonds Basel Yves Kugelmann and Barbara Eldridge also joined the project.

They noted: "The stories of victims of discrimination and violence are often not told. Anne Frank's diary testifies to discrimination and violence. Anne's father, Otto Frank, decided to publish her texts immediately after the war in order to prevent anti-Semitism and ethnic marginalization, and also to create a basis for dialogue between generations and countries.He wanted his daughter's diary to give voice to all the victims of Nazism.75 years ago today, the first edition of The Diary of Anne Frank was published, and today's doodle opens the door to the past, but also raises awareness of the present.Millions of children around the world are still fleeing war, ethnic marginalization and racism."

The Diary of Anne Frank has become one of the most widely read non-fiction works in history. The memoirs of a Jewish girl, translated into more than 80 languages, are today an indispensable tool in schools.

The Frank family was found and arrested on August 4, 1944. The girl and her parents were sent to a detention center by the Nazi secret service, where they were forced to do forced labor. They were later deported to the Auschwitz concentration camp in Poland. There they lived in very limited space and in unsanitary conditions. A few months later, Anne and Margot Frank were sent to the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in Germany. In addition to the brutal deliberate killings of prisoners by Nazi troops, deadly diseases spread rapidly in these places. Anne Frank was only 15 years old when she died of typhus.

The US Senate has passed a bill on land lease, it will allow to supply weapons to Ukraine faster

 UA

Late Wednesday, the US Senate unanimously passed an important bill to restore the program of World War II, which will allow President Joe Biden to more effectively send weapons and other supplies to Ukraine amid Russia's invasion.

This, according to European Truth, reports Politico.

The senators quickly backed the proposal, known as a lease, as the Ukrainian military proved it could fend off Russian troops who have been shelling Ukrainian cities since late February.

 The Lend-Lease program, created during World War II, was considered a turning point during the war because it allowed the United States to quickly replenish Allied supplies without time-consuming procedural obstacles.

Lawmakers are resorting to extraordinary tactics last used during the greatest global conflict of the 20th century, another sign that the United States and its allies in Europe believe Russia's invasion poses an existential threat to the liberal order.

This shows that the Western world believes that Ukraine can now win the fight against the Russian invaders.

The document, known as the Law on Land Lease for the Defense of Ukraine's Democracy of 2022, will speed up the transfer of important military equipment and other critical supplies to Ukraine by reducing bureaucratic red tape. It allows the de facto donation of equipment with provisions that provide that the recipient countries will pay their cost to the United States later.

It is unclear whether the House of Representatives will consider the Senate's lease law before both houses leave Washington on Thursday for a pre-scheduled two-week break. The House of Representatives is expected to pass a bill on trade with Russia following a Senate vote Thursday morning.
