Good storytelling strengthens social movements
Marc, director of Resist, visited Auschwitz today.
Learning of the resistance movement that fought from within the camp, I read this ...
‘Outwardly it might seem that Auschwitz was the last ideal place to start an underground organisation. All reasonable arguments and calculations spoke against any hope of successful underground work, yet, as it turned out, the situation was favourable. Clandestine action is usually taken and is usually successful when all other forms of action have failed, when desperate people must seek secret ties to help each other, to fight an enemy who is too strong for open struggle. Unlimited however, are the moral and physical powers which man has within him’.
Extract from the book ‘Fighting Auschwitz’ by Josef Garlinski (former inmate of Auschwitz, no. 121421)
