7-9Th Grades Waves of Resistance by Chloe A. Girls Athletic Leadership School, Denver, CO First Place Winner Division I – 7-9th Grades Waves of Resistance by Chloe A. Girls Athletic Leadership School, Denver, CO Between the early 1930s and mid-1940s, over 10 million people were tragically killed in the Holocaust. Unfortunately, speaking against the Nazi State was rare, and took an immense amount of courage. Eyes and ears were everywhere. Many people, who weren’t targeted, refrained from speaking up because of the fatal consequences they’d face. People could be reported and jailed for one small comment. The Gestapo often went after your family as well. The Nazis used fear tactics to silence people and stop resistance. In this difficult time, Sophie Scholl, demonstrated moral courage by writing and distributing the White Rose Leaflets which brought attention to the persecution of Jews and helped inspire others to speak out against injustice. Sophie, like many teens of the 1930s, was recruited to the Hitler Youth. Initially, she supported the movement as many Germans viewed Hitler as Germany’s last chance to succeed. As time passed, her parents expressed a different belief, making it clear Hitler and the Nazis were leading Germany down an unrighteous path (Hornber 1). Sophie and her brother, Hans, discovered Hitler and the Nazis were murdering millions of innocent Jews. Soon after this discovery, Hans and Christoph Probst, began writing about the cruelty and violence many Jews experienced, hoping to help the Jewish people. After the first White Rose leaflet was published, Sophie joined in, co-writing the White Rose, and taking on the dangerous task of distributing leaflets. The purpose was clear in the first leaflet, “If everyone waits till someone else makes a start, the messengers of the avenging Nemesis will draw incessantly closer” (White Rose Leaflet 1). The leaflets strong stance was very unusual since many didn’t rebel against the Nazis publicly. As the leaflets were issued, many people turned them into the Gestapo. This didn’t stop Scholl from continuing to speak her mind through the leaflets, despite knowing the danger she was in. On February 18, 1943 while distributing a new leaflet in the stairwells of Munich University, Sophie threw the last leaflets into the air from the top of the stairwell. Jakob Schmid, the school janitor, saw Sophie and Hans and reported them to the Gestapo (Freedman, 71). The Scholls were arrested, tried in court and sentenced to execution. When in court, Sophie pled guilty arguing what she did was the right thing to do, “Somebody, after all, had to make a start. What we wrote and said is also believed by many others. They just don't dare to express themselves as we did.” (Hornber, 3) As Scholl faced death she showed no fear, “‘without turning a hair, without flinching’” one observer wrote (Hornber, 4). Scholl was executed by guillotine on February 22, 1943 because of her efforts to help those in need and to stand up for what was right. Sophie was never stopped by the fact that her actions could kill her. Sophie's actions inspired others to question their opinions and speak up. The second leaflet exposed the atrocities of war, “We would like to mention by way of example the fact that since Poland was conquered, three-hundred-thousand Jews have been murdered in that country in the most bestial manner imaginable. In this we see a terrible crime against the dignity of mankind, a crime that cannot be compared with any other in the history of mankind.” (White Rose Leaflet 2) Knowing the truth of Hitler’s actions awakened German consciences and forced people to reassess their stance. Sophie’s writing prompted people to speak up and act knowing they weren’t alone. By the end of 1943, some leaflets had been smuggled out of Germany and British War planes dropped thousands of copies into Nazi Germany titled, “A GERMAN LEAFLET: MANIFESTO OF THE MUNICH STUDENTS.” (Freedman, 82) The White Rose leaflets were then spread even farther and caused more resistance in Germany. Sophie’s persistence and bravery in expressing her thoughts has truly urged me to speak up. I am often afraid to speak up because I dislike conflict. Sophie has shown me it’s important to speak my mind because if I don’t nothing will change. Lately, I have noticed our current world is not too different from Sophie’s world. The United States is filled with violence and fear. Sophie has reminded me if she can risk her life, I can absolutely risk feeling uncomfortable or scared while speaking up against injustice and conflict when we need change. I will stay informed, march for causes that matter, and talk to people about my opinions. While writing this essay another mass school shooting occurred in Florida, keeping Sophie in mind, I decided to take action. I found a petition for gun control and signed it online. I shared the link on social media and encouraged my friends to sign too. I will continue to fight for gun control and mental health awareness by organizing school walkouts, and participating in protests. By doing this, I will hopefully inspire others to speak up and participate. Sophie motivates me to keep pushing forward to let my voice be heard. Sophie always believed in the power of her mission: “We took everything upon ourselves, what we did will cause waves.” (Horner, 3) Sophie’s writing in the White Rose leaflets brought attention to the persecution of Jews and pushed others speak up, by doing so she demonstrated an immense amount of moral courage. Although Sophie accomplished all this over 50 years ago, Sophie’s story is still relevant to our society today. In our country, we are filled with fear. When we give in to fear, we often don’t speak our minds. When we remain silent, injustice festers. Let’s use Sophie’s story as a reminder that our voices matter and it is our job to speak up. Whether your opinion will be broadcasted on the news, written in an essay, or you talk about your opinions with your friends, family, or peers, it can make a difference. If we speak out we’ll initiate our own waves of resistance; it just takes courage. Works Cited Freedman, Russell.

  • Fearless Speech
    University of Miami Law School University of Miami School of Law Institutional Repository Articles Faculty and Deans 2018 Fearless Speech Mary Anne Franks Follow this and additional works at: https://repository.law.miami.edu/fac_articles Part of the First Amendment Commons, Law and Race Commons, and the Law and Society Commons FEARLESS SPEECH Mary Anne Franks* ABSTRACT The American conception of free speech is primarily defined as the freedom to say whatever one wants, with little regard for the quality, context, or impact of the speech. Thus, American free speech doctrine is often characterized as neutral with regard to the speaker and the content of speech; in practice, however, it consistently privileges powerful over vulnerable speakers and harmful over critical speech. From Philadelphia to Skokie to Charlottesville, the First Amendment has been interpreted to protect speech by white men that silences and endangers women and minorities. As free speech doctrine and practice become increasingly concerned with private as well as state action, free speech becomes even more of a monopoly and monoculture dominated by the interests of white men. The impoverished and elitist conception of free speech that governs current American legal theory and practice undermines all three values the First Amendment is meant to protect: autonomy, truth, and democracy. This Article proposes that First Amendment theory and practice should be reoriented around ancient Greek concept of parrhesia, or fearless speech. As the philosopher Michel Foucault describes it, the speaker of parrhesia"chooses frankness instead of persuasion, truth instead of falsehood or silence, the risk of death instead of life and security, criticism instead of flattery, and moral duty instead of self-interest and moral apathy." Parrhesiais, in essence, the act of speaking truth to power.

  • An Analysis on the Influence of Christianity on the White Rose
    Religion and Resistance: An Analysis on the Influence of Christianity on the White Rose Resistance Movement Laura Kincaide HIST 3120: Nazi German Culture Dr. Janet Ward December 1, 2014 1 Because religion often leads people to do seemingly irrational things, understanding a person’s religion is essential to understand his/her actions. This was especially true in Nazi Germany when religious conviction led some people to risk their lives to do what they believed was right, others allowed their religion to be transformed and co-opted by the Nazis to fit a political agenda while meeting spiritual needs, and still others simply tried to ignore the cognitive dissonance of obeying an authority that was acting in direct contradiction to a spiritual one. This paper will examine the role of Christianity in resistance movements against the Nazis with a focus on the White Rose in an attempt to explain how members of the same religion could have had such drastically different responses to the National Socialists. The White Rose resistance movement officially began in June, 1942 when the group’s first anti-Nazi pamphlet was published and distributed, although the activities and broodings of the members far predated this event. The movement started at the University of Munich, where a small group of students, most notably Hans Scholl, Sophie Scholl, Alex Schmorell, Willi Graf, Christoph Probst, and Traute Lafrenz, and their philosophy and musicology professor, Kurt Huber, discovered that they shared negative opinions of the Nazis and began meeting in secret to discuss their dissident political views.i Some of the most dedicated and passionate members felt the need to spread their ideas throughout the German populace and call upon their fellow citizens to passively resist the Nazis.

  • The Village Unit 3 Year 8
    THE WHITE ROSE INTRODUCTION AND CONTEXT ‘Somebody, after all, had to make a start. What we wrote and said is also believed by many others. They just don’t dare to express themselves as we did.’ Sophie Scholl at her trial. 1943. In a Munich court, brother and sister Hans and Sophie Scholl, with their best friend Christoph Probst, are tried for speaking out against the Nazi regime. As German teenagers in the 1930’s the Scholl siblings had supported Hitler and his rise to power. They had even been members of German youth organisations and, like many others, believed that Hitler was leading Germany into a glorious future. However, as World War II began and the reality of Hitler’s policies became apparent, Sophie and Hans Scholl started to act. Copies of a leaflet called The White Rose appeared at the University of Munich. This anonymous essay condemned the Nazi regime and encouraged ordinary Germans to rise up and resist the authority of their own leaders. Such open rebellion was unheard of. Over the next few months, five more leaflets followed. Seeing The White Rose movement begin to attract public support, the Gestapo redoubled their efforts to hunt down the ringleaders. 18 February 1943 saw Hans and Sophie arrested after leaving leaflets in the buildings of the Munich University. Christoph Probst was linked to the movement and also arrested. After four days of interrogation by the Gestapo, they were tried for treason, found guilty and executed on 22 February 1943. Hans was 24 years old, Sophie 21 and Christoph was 22.

  • Lycurgus in Leaflets and Lectures: the Weiße Rose and Classics at Munich University, 1941–45
    Lycurgus in Leaflets and Lectures: The Weiße Rose and Classics at Munich University, 1941–45 NIKLAS HOLZBERG The main building of the university at which I used to teach is situated in the heart of Munich, and the square on which it stands—Geschwister-Scholl-Platz—is named after the two best-known members of the Weiße Rose, or “White Rose,” a small group of men and women united in their re- sistance to Hitler.1 On February 18, 1943, at about 11 am, Sophie Scholl and her brother Hans, both students at the university, were observed by the janitor in the central hall as they sent fluttering down from the upper floor the rest of the leaflets they had just set out on the steps of the main stair- case and on the windowsills. The man detained them and took them to the rector, who then arranged for them to be handed over to the Gestapo as swiftly as possible. Taken to the Gestapo’s Munich headquarters, they underwent several sessions of intensive questioning and—together with another member of their group, Christoph Probst, who was arrested on February 19—they were formally charged on February 21 with having committed “treasonable acts likely to ad- vance the enemy cause” and with conspiring to commit “high treason and demoralization of the troops.”2 On the morning of the following day, the Volksgerichtshof, its pre- siding judge Roland Freisler having journeyed from Berlin to Munich for the occasion, sentenced them to death. That same afternoon at 5pm—only four days after the first ar- rests—they were guillotined.

  • “White Rose” (January 1943) by Offering Active Political
    Volume 7. Nazi Germany, 1933-1945 The Fifth Broadsheet of the “White Rose” (January 1943) By offering active political resistance to the Nazi regime, the Munich student group known as the “White Rose” earned a special place in the history of Germany’s youth opposition. No doubt the best-known members of the group were siblings Hans (1918-1943) and Sophie Scholl (1921- 1943), both of whom had supported the Nazi regime early on but eventually came to oppose it. Information about the government’s crimes – the euthanasia program and conditions on the Eastern Front, for example – hastened their move toward resistance. In addition to the Scholls, the core group consisted of Hans's friends and fellow students Alexander Schmorell (1917- 1943), Christoph Probst (1919-1943), and Willi Graf (1918-1943). Professor Kurt Huber (1893- 1943) joined the “White Rose” later on. In 1942 and 1943, group members distributed six broadsheets in which they appealed to the public’s sense of moral duty, called for active resistance to the Nazi dictatorship, and demanded an end to the war. Whereas their first four broadsheets only circulated within a small group of mostly Munich-based academics, the fifth one (see below) was distributed in thousands of copies and found its way into several cities in southern Germany. Written by Hans Scholl, Schmorell, and Probst, and addressed to all Germans, it warns that complicity in Nazi crimes could only be avoided by active resistance. When Sophie Scholl went to distribute the group’s sixth and final broadsheet at Ludwig Maximilians University on February 18, 1943, she was spotted by the school’s janitor, who informed the authorities.
