Spiritual resistance refers to the ways Jews in occupied Europe, particularly in the hellish ghettos and concentration camps of Eastern Europe, heroically struggled against impossible odds to maintain their Jewish values. This includes the many Jews who maintained their religious faith in the worst of circumstances, as well as those who organized and maintained charitable and cultural initiatives under German rule. They did so at great risk to their own lives, as a matter of conviction — a spiritual revolt pitting Judaism’s life-affirming values of intellect, compassion, and the sanctity of life against the Nazi ethos of violence, racism, and death.
While formal Holocaust education is our foremost goal, Witness to History has garnered an overwhelmingly positive response from readers of all ages and backgrounds around the globe and can be found in countless private homes and libraries.
The Witness to History DVD addresses entirely new areas of interest, which the book does not cover.
