Hans and Sophie Scholl

Hans and Sophie Scholl were German siblings and members of the White Rose, a non-violent resistance group during Nazi Germany. They courageously distributed anti-war and anti-Nazi flyers to oppose the regime's brutality and oppression, risking their lives. In 1943, they were caught and executed for their activism. Their deeds symbolize moral integrity and standing against tyranny, inspiring many as early martyrs of human rights and dissent.
