The Anne Frank Trust UK is proud to present its International Women’s Day 2013 public meeting in Manchester: ‘50 Shades of Resistance’.


Hussein Al-alak and Marian McQueen will present an exploration for International Women’s Day of the whole range of activity undertaken by women to resist Nazi oppression during World War 2, both at home and abroad; both subtle and forceful; both from within and without.

Hussein will be speaking on the British women who served with the Special Operations Executive, who were instructed to “set Europe ablaze” on the direct orders of Winston Churchill.

Marian and colleagues from The Anne Frank Trust UK will speak about women caught up in the Holocaust, both Jewish and non-Jewish, who illustrate the complex nature of the continuum between victim and resistor in the struggle for survival.

Guests will then be able to explore the stories of other amazing women of resistance, both historical and contemporary, in the exhibition‘Anne Frank + You’.

’50 Shades of Resistance’ will take place within the exhibition ‘Anne Frank + You’

Venue: Z-arts, Stretford Rd , Hulme, M15 5ZA on Friday 8th March, 7pm-8.30pm.

All Welcome ** Free Entry

50 Shades of Resistance?

50 Shades of Resistance? Not the best allusion really for International Womens Day and resistance itself if they mean to refer to a crap bestselling book of slightly risque bondage and domination.

Another question is what have Europeans learned from the alleged holocaust? The answer seems to be that not agreeing with Jewish controlled allied nations claims about it will mean you’re going to get punished.
A Hungarian “holocaust denier” has been ordered to visit Budapest’s memorial museum, Auschwitz or Yad Vashem.

And while the self-hatred is forced on Europe’s citizens by Jews, the hatred of Jews and their anti-Christian hatred grows. Jews report Hungarian’s don’t like them. Jews are being pushed out of Hungary.

One can only hope the rest of Europe will soon follow Hungary’s lead and drive everyone of them into the sea.

I would question if people from the Anne Frank Trust can contribute much. Their sole aim is to continue to perpetrate the dubious story about the so called Anne Frank diary and the money making operation around the house were she supposedly hid and wrote it.

With an increasing amount of evidence that Frank never even existed I would suggest that they not be allowed to repeat their discredited propaganda.
