The Great WWII Hero You Never Head Of
Would you have joined the resistance in Europe during World War II? It’s easy to say yes. But the uncomfortable truth is: most people didn’t. So what separated the ones who acted from the ones who stood by? This video tells the story of August Landmesser, the man in the famous photographer who refused to salute Hitler, and Arnold Douwes, a lifelong misfit who became one of the most effective rescuers of Jewish people in the Netherlands. One became an icon, the other actually saved lives. Along the way, we dig into the psychology of resistance: why 96% of people said yes when asked to hide a Jewish stranger, why courage spreads like a virus, and what separates the so-called ‘zeros’ from the rest of us. The real question isn’t whether you would have been brave enough, it’s who’s asking you. And if no one is, who are you asking? Consider sharing this video as your first ask!
