Resistance during the Holocaust

Resistance during the Holocaust refers to the efforts of individuals and groups who opposed Nazi persecution of Jews and other targeted populations. This included acts like hiding and rescuing victims, sabotage of Nazi operations, spreading information, and communicating secretly. Some participated in uprisings, like the Warsaw Ghetto uprising, fighting back against oppressors. Resistance was risky and often clandestine but demonstrated courage and defiance in the face of unimaginable brutality. These acts helped preserve human dignity, saved lives, and kept hope alive during one of history’s darkest periods.
