Each of its twelve chapters tells a different story of resistance. Sometimes, these stories involve incredible daring and enormous risk \u2013 but they also show that resistance can begin with something as simple as writing your ideas down or showing solidarity with the oppressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Table of Contents<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Guide to Common Abbreviations<br>Introduction: In Search of My Grandfather<br>I Cartoons: The Satirists Who Sounded the Alarm on Nazism in the 1920s<br>II Sebastian Haffner: The Lost Book by the German Who Fled the Nazis and Helped the Allies<br>III The Edelweiss Pirates: The Working-Class German Children Who Resisted Nazism<br>IV Kurt Gerstein: The SS Man Who Tried to Blow the Whistle on the Nazis&#8217; Extermination Camps<br>V Alexander Pechersky: The Jewish Soldier Who Led an Uprising in a Nazi Extermination Camp<br>VI Field Security Sections: Finding and Arresting War Criminals in the Ruins of Nazi Germany<br>VII Leon Bass: The Black American Soldier Who Told the World About Buchenwald<br>VIII Emmi Bonhoeffer: The German Activist Who Helped Holocaust Survivors in the Frankfurt Auschwitz Trial<br>IX Gitta Sereny: The Journalist Who Interviewed a Nazi Mass Murderer<br>X Shoah: The People Who Got Nazi War Criminals to Discuss Their Crimes on Camera<br>XI The Holtzman Amendment: The People Who Expelled Nazi War Criminals From the United States<br>XII Formers: The American Neo-Nazis Who Turned on Their Beliefs<br>Conclusion<br>Acknowledgements<br>Further Reading<br>Works Cited<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Luke Berryman<\/strong> is the Founder and CEO of The Ninth Candle, a Chicago-based 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that helps schools to improve Holocaust education.
