Holocaust Resistance Assignment

The Holocaust was marked by tragedy and death, but it was also marked by heroic  efforts in the face of true evil and danger. The people who resisted the efforts of the Nazis can also teach us something - how to develop our internal moral compass,
​ how to develop resiliency, how to speak up.
