Letters to the Editor: Remember the sacrifice of brave Sophie Scholl

The story of the anti-Nazi activist should remind us that there are still those who speak up for the oppressed

Julia Jentsch played the title role in 'Sophie Scholl' about the young woman who died for her participation in the non-violent White Rose anti-Nazi resistance movement. 

Last week marked the 80th anniversary of when the Allies freed the Nazi concentration camp in Auschwitz on January 27, 1945.

There will soon be the 82nd anniversary on February 22 of a young German woman who was brutally executed by the Nazis in 1943.
