Description
An equally important history of the discrimination against racial, ethnic and religious groups as the violence is the resistance, resilence and protection of minorities by courageous individuals, communities and sometimes, nations themselves. Denmark was prepared for defeat and gave little resistance to the German invasion. The government surrendered but the Danes as a nation refused to surrender the Jews When the Germans seized government a vast network of resistance emerged.
