Conservative organization Moms for Liberty faced major setbacks in state and school board elections. Candidates endorsed by the organization suffered widespread defeats, this week. With over 130 endorsed candidates nationwide, most faced losses, some with single-digit support. New Jersey saw only four out of 19 endorsed candidates winning. In April, a Florida school banned an adaptation of Anne Frank's Holocaust diary because Moms for Liberty deemed it "sexually explicit."

☆ Opinion: The untold story about Anne Frank’s hiding place

British actors Bel Powley and Joe Cole play Miep and Jan, with Liev Schreiber as Otto Frank. Only Otto Frank survived. Anne Frank's (1929-1945) world famous diary charts two years of her life from 1942 to 1944, when her family were hiding in Amsterdam from German Nazis. Anne Frank has particularly been in the zeitgeist in recent years, with the 2021 French animated film “Where Is Anne Frank,” a magical retelling of her story loosely based on the 2018 graphic novel; the 2022 Dutch Netflix movie “My Best Friend Anne Frank,” based on the book “Memories of Anne Frank: Reflections of a Childhood Friend”; the controversial, eventually pulled 2022 book “The Betrayal of Anne Frank”; and “After the Annex: Anne Frank, Auschwitz and Beyond,” coming out in May. While 89% have heard of Anne Frank, 32% don’t know she died in a concentration camp.

A Florida school removed a graphic novel adaptation of Anne Frank's diary from its library shelves. Anne Frank's original diary remains in the high school's library. The book, entitled "Anne Frank's Diary: The Graphic Adaptation," was removed from the Vero Beach High School library in Indian River County after a group called Moms for Liberty expressed concerns, according to local news outlet WPTV. "We think true history absolutely needs to be taught, the Holocaust, the Anne Frank diary," Jennifer Pippin, who chairs the Indian River County chapter of Moms For Liberty, told WPTV. Frank's original diary remains in the Vero Beach High School library, Dr. Kyra Schafte, the director of academic compliance and equity for the district, told WPTV.
