| Summary |
Despite the widespread belief that Jews went willingly to their deaths in Nazi gas chambers, many risked everything to help their fellow prisoners, thwart the Nazi system, and escape from their captors. Resistance took many forms, including armed uprisings in the camps, partisan raids from forest enclaves on Nazi military assets, and non-violent activities in art, literature, and Jewish culture. |
