Women in Resistance - Fierce Females

Women were often at the very heart of resistance, whether spiritual, cultural or armed. This lecture will focus on the crucial role young women played in armed resistance. Although this story has largely remained in the shadows, or perhaps been overshadowed by the stories of armed resistance in the ghettos of Europe, it is a story of incredible bravery exhibited by a group of Jewish girls and women who worked as couriers, connecting the ghettos of Europe and bringing morale, information, courage and arms to isolated communities of Jews. This was the eighth lecture in the 10-week lecture series in partnership with St. Kilde Shule, October-December 2020, delivered by Sheryl Silver Ochayon, of Yad Vashem's International School for Holocaust Studies.
