April 23: Armed and Spiritual Resistance During the Holocaust – The Warsaw and Vilna Ghettos
During the Holocaust, Jews resisted Nazi oppression through armed uprisings, sabotage, and non-violent defiance through cultural and religious traditions.
This webinar examines resistance in two ghettos to address issues of justice; ghetto survivors’ testimony; and efforts today to end impunity for atrocities.
