Telling the story of ‘resistance’

For most students, the word ‘resistance’ is associated with particular acts or modes of behaviour. In the context of the Holocaust, ‘resistance’ is commonly understood to constitute physical, usually armed and often violent forms of ‘fighting back’. This lesson aims at complicating students’ thinking and inculcating more dynamic ways of thinking about ‘resistance’.
