Resistance museum

We will be going to Paris on Oct. 15th for 9 days, and then to Rome for 10 days. It is exciting. We have done a lot this past week. We went to the Resistance Museum. Basically it is a museum of French resistance during WWII. It is something that American High Schools do not teach. The French killed many Jews and placed them in concentration camps, especially Auschwitz. The did not just show such hatred toward Jews, but foreigners and communists as well. The Resistance was made up of french men and women who did not want to be a part of the slaughter. Many of these people were tortured themselves, but out of it came some remarkable people. I challenge anyone to read up on this topic, learn, and be shocked. Research names such as General De Gaulle, who was the first to call for appeal of resistance, and Marianne Cohn, who helped free many Jewish children in prison camps.
