Anne Frank Interview Script

7/8 B
Narrator: Today we will be having a special guest! She was a 13 year old girl from Germany during the Holocaust. During hiding she hid behind a bookcase in one of the family’s friend’s homes. The secret passage led to an upstairs home. It was small but good enough. Please welcome the one the only…. Anne Frank!!
Anne: Thank you, thank you! I’m so excited to be here thanks for inviting me!
Narrator: My first question is: Where did you live during this difficult time?
Anne: Well before the Holocaust I lived with my parents and my sister Margot in Amsterdam in the Netherlands. My father, Otto, had job connections there so we moved to Amsterdam. I lived a happy life.
Narrator: Very nice, and just to clarify this all happened between the years of 1942 to 1944. Correct?
Anne: Yes it did.
Narrator: So, what rights were taken away from you?
Anne: Well a lot of them. For one my family and I were victimized of our freedom of religion and if we tried to fight against that then we would be killed. And that was very scary for us. Being a 13 year old child I was quite frightened. Another right that was taken away from us was liberty. We didn’t have any say in anything we entirely lost or liberty. We also lost freedom of speech. If we said what we thought and tried to enforce it and tell others that it was wrong than we could easily get killed. It was a very hard time for my family and I.
Narrator: Wow that is scary. I don’t know how you bared it. Moving on, again to clarify, the conflict was you meaning the Jews against Hitler and his helpers. Correct?
Anne: Yes that is true.
Narrator: Why do you think this all happened?
Anne: I think it happened because Hitler wanted power and a perfect environment and in his head we weren’t perfect for the city so the only way to get rid of us was to kill us. He killed as many of the Jews young or old possible and he attempted to kill all of the homosexual citizens. He was a horrid horrid man.
Narrator: Ok, last question. What did you do about it? If anything?
Anne: Well, I wanted to do a lot of things that I knew I couldn’t do. I guess it ended up that the only thing that I could do was hide and try to stay alive. It was very sad. I think it was Miep Gies who helped my family and me. She wasn’t Jewish so it made it easier. Miep was so kind she brought us food and helped us practically live but in a safe manner because if she was found helping us she would be killed. But after awhile we got caught and my sister and I were brought to a concentration camp. It was very crowded there. One day you would see someone and the next they would be killed. It was very sad. My father, Otto, and my mother, Edith, also died in a concentration camp.
Narrator: I think that’s all the time we have today Miss Frank.
Anne: Alright, thank you for your time.
Narrator: Your welcome, Anne Frank later died in the concentration camp after spending some time in the gas shower, she was only 15 years old. It’s tragic but fortunately her story lives on. Join me next week when I interview Einstein! See you next week!

Mom:
Jasmyn evidenced a good understanding of Anne Frank's situation, her living space, and the events surrounding the story. I was impressed with Jasymn's use of the German accent which made the facts seem that much more valid.
Sister:
I found it enthralling, and the accent was very original, i in fact found the information very nicely delivered, and not forced. If i had to make some recommendation it would probably be just to hear more about her diary, and why it was so important for her to confide in something in these very tragic times. But i found the information fascinating, and i never lost interest with the character.

Anne Frank
-Anne Frank tried to fight back by hiding from the Nazis.
-During this even Hitler took control over Germany, or so he thought, and put every Jew that he could find into concentration camps to kill them. After awhile the Germans took control and Hitler was brought into custody.
-Anne Frank hid in a little attic place above one of their friends homes and that must have been sort of scary so when she heard that people were trying to get her she reacted like any other 11 year old would. She probably was scared.
-She only survived for half of the whole thing until her families hiding spot was found and Anne and her sister Margot were taken to a concentration camp where Margot was killed first from a disease and then Anne died in one of the gas showers. Its tragic but her story lives on.
-In my podcast the voice will be a young girls voice because she was very young when she died.
-When Anne was in hiding she was gaining more and more hope but when she she was brought into the consent ration camp she was absolutely hopeless.
