1. Rescue in Denmark

2. Rescue  People that lived in Europe did not usually participate in the Nazi genocide; but, they didn't help the Jews either.  People idly stood by while watching Jews, Gypsies, and other enemies of the Nazi party be forced to leave their homes.  Other people were too afraid to help or they told themselves that it was none of their business.  Nazis would scout houses and boats to search for any Jews. If you were found housing Jews you would be punished by death.  Fishermen transported around 7,200 Danish Jews and 680 families that were not Jewish, across the body of water between Denmark and Sweden.  12,000 Jewish children were picked up by Frenchmen.  About 20,000 Polish Jews were able to survive by hiding in Warsaw's ghetto.

3. Jewish Partisans

4. Partisans Jews, of which were 'partisans', managed to escape the camps and the ghettos. The ones that did escape, formed fighting units. These partisans focused on mainly wooded areas. Life was hard for these partisans, as they had to: move from place to place so they could remain undiscovered, raid farms, and live in unstable shelters built from logs and branches.

5. The Warsaw Ghetto Uprising

6. Uprising Mass amounts of Jews that lived in ghettos across Europe tried to form resistances against the Germans The most famous attempt by Jews to resist the Germans in armed combat, occurred in Warsaw's ghetto The Jews armed themselves with smuggled and homemade weapons. When word of the mass murders in Treblinka got back to the Warsaw ghetto, the Z.O.B was formed. Z.O.B stands for, “Zydowska Organizacja Bojowa, that means “Jewish Fighting Organization.”

7. Killing Center Revolts

8. The Revolution A lot of the fighters knew that they were not going to win against the mass German Army; but, they made a choice to fight and die anyway. After many of the Jews deported to Treblinka were gassed, only around 1,000 remained. Wielding shovels, picks, and weapons stolen from the arms warehouse, the Jews set fire to some of the camp and cut its barbed-wire fence. Around 300 of the 1,000 escaped and about 100 of them evaded the Germans and their efforts to recapture them.

9. The war refugee board

10. The Board of War Refugees Treasurer, Henry Morgenthau, convinced Franklin Roosevelt to establish the War Refugee Board. The US State Department felt that the best way to rescue the victims of Nazi Germany's policies, was to win the war as fast as possible. The W.R.B worked with Jewish organizations, government officials from neutral countries, and resistance groups of Europe to save Jews from being captured and to help boost the moral of inmates of the Nazi's concentration camps.

11. Resistance Inside Germany

12. Resistance Many people tried to resist Nazism in Germany. Some people even wrote, printed, and gave-out anti-Nazi literature. Many of them were imprisoned in concentration camps for their actions. Many plots were thought of to assassinate Hitler during the war. In 1944, a serious assassination attempt, planned by some German military officers and was acted out with a bombing. Hitler evaded the bomb's blast with minor injuries.

13. Resistance (Continued ) Many opposed Hitler's ruling and very little groups openly protested the Nazi genocide against the Jews. In June 1942, the “White Rose” movement was founded by Hans Scholl. The origin of the name “White Rose” still remains a mystery today. It distinctly stands for purity, hence it being white, and innocence in the face of evil, of which is represented by the rose.
