Product Code:	9780971685925
Description:	By The Museum of Jewish Heritage
Product Detail:	Daring to Resist: Jewish Defiance in the Holocaust is the remarkable accompanying volume to an exhibition of The Museum of Jewish Heritage – A Living Memorial to the Holocaust. This important publication challenges the stereotypical view that Jews were passive victims of Nazi oppression. This unique compilation of more than thirty memoirs, oral histories, and letters, some published for the first time in English, documents vitality and resilience of Jewish life under Nazi oppression. Several entries are from well-known resistance figures such as Abba Kovner, the first to raise a cry for armed Jewish resistance; Rabbi Leo Baeck, who spearheaded attempts to save German Jewry;, and Dr. Janusz Korczak, who protected 200 orphans in the Warsaw Ghetto. Equally important are firsthand accounts from dozens of ordinary men and women who, through their courageous actions, showed that the Nazis could not break their spirit or destroy their faith.
