“An ‘Act’ of Resistance”
In this activity, students will research other historical events that have inspired resistance movements and share their findings through a skit or original film, as well as a research poster.
One of the book’s central themes is the idea that resistance to oppression can take many different forms. The Holocaust was one period in world history that necessitated this kind of resistance, and Chaya’s chosen path is clearly that of armed resistance and retaliatory violence. However, Esther points out to her that a refusal to capitulate or even to engage in violence can be an equally valid and brave choice.
