Resistance Journal Assignment

You have now completed the viewing of "Escape from Sobibor". Please write a journal response to the following prompt:

Reflect on armed and unarmed resistance based on testimonies you have heard. Why is one form of resistance more appropriate than another in certain situations? Think of an example of a situation that would warrant each type of resistance.
