Join Sven-Erik Rose in a powerful conversation on resistance and memory with author Havi Ben-Sasson Dreifuss, centered on her book, The People's Uprising: The Fall of the Warsaw Ghetto April 1942-June 1943
In the face of unimaginable oppression, ordinary people made extraordinary choices. This powerful conversation explores the history, meaning, and legacy of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising—one of the most significant acts of Jewish resistance during World War II. Drawing from her book The People’s Uprising and the Fall of the Warsaw Ghetto, April 1942–June 1943, Dreifuss and Rose discuss how individuals and communities confronted brutality with courage, dignity, and defiance. Together, they illuminate not only what happened between April 1942 and June 1943, but why this history continues to resonate today.
At a time of rising antisemitism and global conflict, this conversation asks urgent questions about resistance, moral choices, and the power of collective action. What does it mean to stand up in the face of injustice? And how do we carry these lessons forward? Join the conversation and be part of a vital dialogue on history, resistance, and the enduring struggle for human dignity.
