WHAT DOES SPIRITUAL RESISTANCE, WHICH IS DISCUSSED IN WITNESS TO HISTORY, PROJECT WITNESS’ GROUNDBREAKING TEXTBOOK, MEAN?
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.
