When the National Socialist came to power in one nine hundred thirty three they ruthlessly enforced conformity with their regime in germany the majority of germans willingly followed hitler on the road to war and genocide yet not everyone wanted to bow to the dictators power son tried to resist. She was brave and all and im sure she certainly was a heroine. Or not a doctor i dont think i could ever be able to get born would not be that i think that my my god he hopefully there wont be a war and then so he said no hopefully someone will finally go after hitler so he. Do whatever he pleases everywhere kind of recipe. Hitlers opponents use fliers in desperate attempts to make people see the nazis crimes and prevent worse from happening. Driven by faith in freedom and confidence in the allies strength Resistance Groups clung to their hope of toppling the nazi reign of terror. While the hope was the soviet union and the red army when that war started then that would also be the end of naziism in germany. But sec backs come one after the other other and then they all got arrested. Many women also paid with their lives in their fight for humanity. Issue so from the Current Issue state thats my into he might show it. More than seventy years after the war cons copy jr the only son of two people who resisted the nazis is in berlin. Hes proud of his parents hilda and hans. They risked everything for their convictions and their belief in a better world. For this the nazis punished them harshly. On the sleep my parents lived and loved their lives when their was the only thing they had. And in their turn their behavior was different well outstanding because they swam against the tide the. Big names told muslims and. Born in one thousand and nine he would rock is painter childhood and youth in berlin in the one nine hundred twenty s. She went to high school and continued on to study Business Times were turbulent anyone who could find work in the Weimar Republic could consider themselves lucky. As well and with all who for example then my mother became a receptionist cyclical i got through it through to her terrible work in the doctors office. And for one doctor she assisted during operations and took x. Rays. She was always interested in doing a thorough job. If i hadnt typed that was unclear was also the time of the Major Economic crisis at and she found a course in Natural Sciences and went to night school stuff and. Oh you know my lot there she met young people her age who were unemployed before and she liked them. And. I wasnt politician this illogically they were on the left young communists. Or i and there was one in france comma potus of whom she was particularly fond if that meant the time he was studying at the university in berlin. As what they called to have two hundred communist he was among the first people to be ostracized in one nine hundred thirty three and. I got my. Own i got the boycott started this morning at ten am. It will be continued until midnight. It is being carried out with a prop force and with impressive masculine discipline as well. That a lot of. Crowds of nazis chanted germans defend yourselves dont buy from jews. Under hitlers regime a scapegoat for all the countrys misery was found quickly the Jewish Population suffered discrimination humiliation and ostracisation. Those who oppose the system politically were brutally silenced. Buttering a single complaint about the nazis led to harsh punishment of the rockies friend france karma experience the oppression. Was. With those times you continued to be Close Friends with france comus young today you would say they had a relationship. With. Him and of course she also experienced that under those conditions while her friend was barely able to make a living. This was all this has got some see it until the tenth of november nine hundred thirty eight his mother ran a small guest house in. November tenth was the day that the windows were smashed and the synagogues burned. The youth and. Both important their say and others came into the apartments. But your hand that her guest house is going to actually erect the whole interior. By the what that was done my mother rushed over there it was a fourteen there was nothing that could be done about you just saw him without lights and mom. Two days later her girl decreed that all jews would be stripped of their right to run businesses and i think that france said he didnt see any opportunities here anymore. Kind of transmits with everything was only getting worse. And he decided to exploit the last opportunity demographic. But at that i suppose and my mother probably would have been happy to do the same. But she couldnt leave her mother alone and her mother was alone and had no pension so she was dependent on her daughter and its hard when you got it and. You could top that and use so in august nine hundred thirty nine they parted it was something. That she that. Runs karma fled to scandinavia just in time World War Two began a month later. Germany became a hell for the jews who remained at the end of october one nine hundred forty one jews were forbidden by law to leave. The dr hilda worked for was drafted into the military at the start of the war. She got a job at a Government Insurance company and she maintained contact with her communist friends. Thats out of the moment you dont look at that time she was meeting often with the critter you got. And i thought oh yes day nine hundred forty and thats whats you know they went for a long walk and critter you go said come along a few friends are getting together. For one of them was my father and father so obviously and so thats how they met in one thousand forty i knew god and he invited her to come to elaine its in the spring. Id been working there since one nine hundred thirty eight and had bought himself a folding boat. Together with other friends they set up their folding boat at the boat house. Guns and hilda got along well from the start the budding friendship was soon to develop into something more. Than to make after getting closer and closer. And then in one thousand forty one they married on the fourteenth of june i ought to do me with the uni youll need. One of the guns they shared was their Firm Conviction that something had to be done against the nazi regime. Other opponents of the nazis were already drawing attention with flyers and other illegal publications. Those who were caught or denounced were brutally punished. The nazis didnt tolerate any opposition. Sophie schol became one of the best known members from these groups. Into sophie one time sophie said so many people are dying for hitler its time that someone finally died fighting against hitler. This is where it all started and came to an end back then at the university in munich sophie and her brother distributed a new flyer from the Resistance Group the white rose they were betrayed arrested interrogated for hours and ultimately paid for their actions with their lives their desire for freedom peace and justice outweighed their fears of the consequences. So we were so impressed by what my brother and sister did. We were amazed at them from the first moment we discovered what they had done last week and we gladly face the consequences afterward to. The fourth now damn of. The five shows siblings had liberal parents they grew up in bought invertebrate and christian values were important to the family funds was the second oldest bank order hands at the mall with my brother hans always sought out special people what he would in gauging discussions in advance the debate he set the tone even when he was still just in elementary school. He was very attractive. I still remember that schoolmates often came to pick me up in the hopes that my brother would open the door. Or know my brother had a nose for people he could rely on people who he could do things with feel sorry for last week in my bus and five. Pounds was a confident single minded young man he found friends quickly. Younger sister sophie was by contrast shy did so feel see it simply because didnt biden discuss so he was very reserved. She didnt really take part in discussions much even though she was really bright and articulate. And. Could she could write very well too she wrote the best final essay in her high school class. To. Sleep and they used to read it aloud as an example right up until her imprisonment shaming and Death Threats in class and for good listener. Against the express will of their father hans and sophie both became enthusiastic members of the hitler youth and the federation of german girls. Initially they. Follow the ideals of the National Socialist but soon realize that they dedicated themselves to a regime that subjugated people with violence and fear. By nine hundred thirty seven they had turned their backs on nazi ideology. And here criminally you know how i remember it was probably one or two days after the start of the Second World War i was walking along the danube with sophie and i said my god hopefully there wont be a war my good. Creek and i and so he said no hopefully someone will finally go after hitler so he cant do what ever he pleases everywhere. Recipe. The resistance was taking shape under the name the white rose punch sure and his classmate alexander penned a leaflet in one nine hundred forty two and sent it anonymously to intellectuals in munich they appealed to peoples conscience and called on them to engage in passive resistance. The first leaflet said do not forget that every people deserves the regime it is willing to endure. The young mens experience on the Eastern Front played a crucial role between semesters of their medical studies at university in munich they were sent to poland as medics there they saw the true horrors of war a friend feeling graph soon joined the white rose. The friends had to be careful their activities were kept secret even from their families. Made a late fee i saw how and Alexander Small came to our house we are sick they told me they were going to the gynaecological Womens Hospital to explain why they were going out at night. And then i was walking with sophie in the english garden and saw. She said we should write slogans on the walls i said well i only have a pencil in my pocket and she answered thats not enough we need black tar paint and i said thats dangerous to settle and she shot back over the night is freedoms friend do not use it try and find. Sophie began studying biology and philosophy at the university of munich in the summer of one nine hundred forty two. Through close contact with her brother she soon got to meet all the members of the white rose hans confided in sophie he told her everything he had also insisted that she not take part. But sophie wanted to do something. She joined the white rose. The groups second flier said when those a wave of unrest goes through the land then in a great final effort this system can be shaken off. After all an end to terror is preferable to terror without end. Sophie hunts and their friends knew they were in mortal danger they kept the group small because of it. When sophies boyfriend officer for its heart was on home leave in germany she asked him to stamp a coupon authorizing her to get a duplicating machine. Park novel was also against the war and he suspected his friends were in danger and. See that you could check she told him it was for a good cause he immediately thought that it was something illegal and told her sophie is it clear to you that this can cost you your head and she said yes thats clear to me. From him on. Pretty hard noddle wasnt an initiate but he fulfilled his girlfriend sophies wish the group was unable to make thousands of protest flyers against the hated nazi regime at the end of january one nine hundred forty three. They printed a leaflet entitled a call to all germans hitler cannot win the war he can only prolong it to make the decision before it is too late. On the eighteenth of february sophie and hands were placing leaflets at the university before classrooms were open. They failed to notice that they had been seen. On the sixth flyer was directed at students and sealed the siblings face the name of germany is dishonored for all time if german youth does not finally rise take revenge and atone smash its tormentors and set up a new europe of the spirit of students the german people are looking to us sophie and hans for betrayed. The hall porter yakob schmidt and others held the two until the gestapo arrived brother and sister were arrested immediately. In hanss file the agents noted taken into custody on suspicion of distributing flyers. The two did not know the think a sample had already searched their residence. Twenty three year old hands wanted to protect his sister and their friends. At first he denied having anything to do with the leaflets. He fearlessly face the officers. So if he wasnt intimidated by the interrogation either she said the leaflets were already stacked in the halls and on the stairs when she arrived at the university. But what the gestapo found in their rooms was clear evidence against them. The questioning went on endlessly. By the Resistance Groups besides the white rose had long since been formed they had to be careful because their ideas were prohibited. One wrong word in the wrong place could mean immediate betrayal to the gestapo. Consistence. Apparently not just people who were known each other from before nineteen thirty three. Got together. In the arts as inish nazi and said they could recognize not nazis or nazi opponents come from chi if you could recognize them from the back by their haircut and posture as of course short. But in conversation words came up that were different they recognise each other by words and gestures they were codes and chords i can. Howard schultz a boys and have been working in the Intelligence Division of the russian air Ministry Since one nine hundred thirty four yes he had been opposing the nazis ever since they seized power as the publisher of a left leaning liberal magazine he was detained by s. S. Thugs in april one nine hundred thirty three and had to look on as a jewish friend and colleague was murdered. After that he outwardly went along with the dictatorship he believed that capitalisms days were numbered and turning to the east and communism together with his wife libertas he remained loyal to the resistance sought by the gestapo as there was a capella or red orchestra they developed an underground organization. Looking at all the couple the socalled. Wasnt the type of Organization People long maintained it was it was neither a group of spies nor part of the illegal communist party and instead they were groups of friends who overlapped through the acquaintance of individuals the bush doesnt wish to become self importance of. These days you call it a network as well as. Your communist friends shields a boys and soon met tons copy. Most would actually suppose my fathers. Supporters and didnt need to do a lot of convincing with my father wanted to be a force for him it was clear that their hope was the soviet union and the red army. But its these are critical. But if this war would start then that would be the end of naziism in germany it could be a new target for mike the guy who plays before my parents got married. Boys and approached my father and asked him if he could imagine working as a radio man. Forgot what went on my father asked why and i said it in the next days the war with the soviet union would begin and that he had received two radios from the soviet embassy at us though he said it would be really important to maintain contact with moscow during this war which was all or nothing most call contact had it. Should sit boysen used his position in the rice air ministry he passed on military information to the soviet Foreign Intelligence Service the other conspirators and hans copy. Of the copy was also active in resisting the National Socialists. In moscow woodfull your four and my mother for example was listening to radio moscow back then just like quite a year ago my. Thoughts and creeks are formed in which yet they would write down names and addresses of german prisoners of war who spoke on the radio saying my name is and i lived please tell my parents and my wife alone tell them im alive but thats logs all it was like counterpropaganda because i said as a rule that the russians dont take any prisoners and we found. The german there marked initially advanced rapidly along the Eastern Front and reported success after success. Get in the autumn of one nine hundred forty one the army became bogged down. There had forecast that russia would be defeated by christmas he hadnt thought about the autumn rains and the approaching frigid winter the german troops were woefully underprepared. Nothing to. Look at much its a mile after the german army was repulsed for the first time on the outskirts of moscow in november and december opponents of hitler and the whole regime began to think of now theyve really conquered themselves to death. So it would even seek the boys that are fruits of boys and other friends published a leaflet in september called fear over germanys future is spreading among the people. I knew and that exists at all hundred copies of it were sent to people who theyd picked out of the telephone book and sometimes. The phone book was going to happen or you could stop also record of the operation because two hundred sixty of those copies were handed over to the police or the gestapo. Because they were also investigations into where the paper came from. Because people would notice if you bought several hundred pieces of paper somewhere. By the future and all of that money may have opened up a. Gilded copy was providing the paper for the road to capellas leafleting campaigns for a job at the Rice Insurance institute made it quite convenient. Does which is. Different and that really isnt that only later did i read in a file about some other people that my mother took paper from this insurance organization. I thought there. Was some of it she kept at her mothers. And then my father also joined in putting these leaflets into mailboxes and later in may nine hundred forty two there was this and the soviet special exhibition in the last con soviet part of the soviet paradise was the first site to look through this it took up two thirds of the whole garden. Where they showed the jewish bolshevism added spray. In the soviet union. A Million People went to the propaganda exhibit which was meant to further insight war against bolshevism. With the victorious advance of all troops war correspondents have reported that the soviet paradise has made a deep impression on them it is showing them the hopeless grade daily grind bit by bit with each break in their advance. Propaganda ministry slogans railed that poverty misery and squalor were ever present in the soviet union it was proof that the war in the east was justified. Should support group reacted immediately. And to what for and even if we could most it was about the home front after the war and the east had stalled at that and they wanted people up in arms again. And thats when shultz poison at the idea of writing a short text entitled permanent exhibition of the nazi paradise is more hunger lies the gestapo for how much longer food. And someone found a printer and they made about a thousand of them. Then one sunday evening that talked it over again with. Someone who had worked on it discussed and weighed up whether it was the right thing to do or if it were too dangerous it caught in his office and even the older one said were not touching that. But then they decided to go ahead when shultz poison came and said well always go in pairs and if we dont do it today and were not going to do much of anything anymore that sees it as a home. And it will speak. So in the end they decided to do it the group posted the flyers all over berlin in mid may nine hundred forty two schultz a boys and had since been promoted to first lieutenant. He was still transmitting radio warnings about secret fair mox maneuvers in the east. Biggest up a long search for who was behind it but they werent able to track them down. Until july nine hundred forty two when a soviet secret Service Transmission from the previous august was finally decoded it was a message from moscow to brussels unit where Howard Schultz a boys name and interests. On august thirty first the gestapo came to his office in the russian air ministry chilled to boys and was arrested immediately and interrogated. He could not refute the allegations all the evidence was against him. When he didnt come home that evening his wife suspected something was wrong. A few days later the gestapo took her into custody as well. Meanwhile hans copy had been drafted but his name and the name of his wife hilda soon came up during the course of the investigation the nazis came to the property in september. And so forth and you know before my one came right into my grandparents dacha and my grandfather was standing there was more his corpulent im coping and i gave him a punch in the gut for that and he asked. Hans copy no not unscom he lives over there hes my son my hands. On it and my mother was likely already there too and she said hes off to the us hes not here he was just called up into the army the day before yesterday where somewhere near pows and then right away the car turned around and drove to pows who was. He thought everyone everyone who lived on that property my grandparents my fathers brother and my mother were all arrested and taken to jail it out xander plots well and so my dixon up lots of pretty sorry for my father and they brought your stopper headquarters imprints on british. The queens eye and they put him in a cell where he remained the whole time you got to know the guns its. On the eighteenth of february one thousand nine hundred three hundred since oficial were questioned in the gestapo prison in munich. The agents asked again and again about the white roses leaflets sophie vehemently denied even knowing of the Resistance Group let alone having anything to do with the flyers. Documents of her testimony reveal how she maintained that the flyers were already in the halls outside the University Classrooms when she and her brother hans arrived. She saw them first on the upper part of the stairs on the first floor. Each of them picked one up read it cursorily and then put it in a pocket she said hans even laughed about it. She didnt deny that she pushed a few of the leaflets from the bannisters down into the atrium. She said she knew she was being watched as she did it. She said i admit only that i did something stupid by behaving the way i did but i cant change that now i admit that a number of facts speak against my brother and me. At the same time hunt show was being interrogated in another room the agents asked him how he got the leaflets that have been found in his coat pocket if he didnt have anything to do with those responsible. For that he had found an envelope in the mailbox that morning on the way to the university. There was a leaflet in the envelope. He skimmed over briefly and then tore it up and put it in his pocket. This testimony would become fateful for the siblings. Because sophie said she and her brother left their rooms together that day the interrogators asked her if she had seen the envelope in the mailbox. So he maintains when my brother and i left our rooms at about ten thirty am the mailbox must certainly have been empty because i had emptied it an hour earlier this inconsistency sealed their doom. On the day of their arrest propaganda minister yos of goebbels was giving a speech in berlin and the war in the east was dragging on people needed to be convinced of the coming triumph. The german people of the governments total war. Want total capitulation. Terrible war. Or if Necessary Evil a more radical than we can imagine. The germans were to fight any form of resistance was to be brutally suppressed. Tangling himself in in consistencies was being backed into a corner. Letters had been found in his rooms the evidence weighed heavily against him. On the morning of the one thousand nine hundred forty three he finally confessed. He admitted sharing responsibility for the fliers and that he also distributed them in the halls of the university. He was also forced to reveal the name of his counterpart christopher. Composed a draft of the seventh white rose leaflet. Was already on his trail they found and arrested him on the twentieth of february and questioned him for hours. Resolutely stuck to her story. She continued to deny having anything to do with the leaflets and stanch lee protected her friends but she gave up the interrogation specialist robert moore told sophie her brother had confessed in her confession she said we were convinced that the war was lost for germany and that every single human life sacrificed for this last war was for nothing. Were at home when they learned of the arrest of their children. A little my parents were told by a woman who studied with my brother. She came to and told my parents that they had been arrested and why. And it was immediately clear to my parents that it could only mean the Death Penalty for them so fucking obvious this new and total tried in kind well and frys learn had been president of the Nazi Peoples Court the folks he reached for half a year he was reputedly the best known and most notorious judge of criminal cases in the third reich hearings in his court were nothing more than show trials on the twenty second of february one thousand nine hundred three price for himself came from berlin to munich to preside over the trial against sophie and honshu all. The parents and siblings of the defendants were present in the palace of justice at the time. They knew it wouldnt end well then put it up finished fatality then the public defender was called to speak on behalf of my sister he said he hadnt been given access to the files ahead of the trial. If he would have that he still would have argued that execution was fully justified. And then my father stood up and said that when the defender wouldnt defend his children than he wanted to do it or not. Tried to kill the only time hes done for us and then they threw all of us my mother my sister and my brother venner out of the courtroom. And as he was being taken out my father called out loudly there is a higher kind of justice the high that im talking about here. The Court Sentenced tonnesen sophie schol to death for treason aiding of the enemy preparing for high treason and attempting to demoralize the military their sentence to be carried out the same day. Christopher probst had desperately begged for clemency in vain. He left behind a wife and three children the youngest only four weeks old. The white rose would die with Christopher Probst and sophie and hunch. In november one thousand nine hundred two hundred copy was sitting in his cell in berlin he was still awaiting sentencing. Meanwhile his wife was in the womens prison environments trust. One thought the belief was my father wrote a letter to my mother from the gestapo prison. Its tone was. Do you and your thoughts still stroll along the sunny side of our lives you wrote you came like spring personified. Because i puffed good feeling then it was spring the letter continued summer was full it was so long so short you cant mark it on a calendar yet it gave us everything we longed for now autumn is coming guns could be had realized he wouldnt come out of jail alive so he wrote to hilda what he couldnt say. To me and in least for me these letters about their days and of the joy they had together are the nicest testimonial not the leaflets the students and so. They had their one side together thats nothing at the other side as well and thats what i think of again and again. Ive moved my table beneath the window to write you these lines by the light of day the awareness of our shared identity is a continuous source of new thoughts that revolve around each other of what we experience together and of what still awaits. At the time of her arrest hilda kopi was seven months pregnant. And november twenty seventh she gave birth to a healthy boy she named him after his father. Im so overjoyed i dont know where to start hans wrote our son has arrived mommy in court brought me the joyous news today given hugs and kisses and much love from his father a great big hug to you ill hold you until i see you again. So its a lot its about this but father. My father saw me on the ninth of december. You know he was taken to barnum strasser or my mother and i were taken to him. Go and see him and then on the nineteenth of december. He was sentenced to death with shorter boys and hard knock on twelve other men and women. And he was murdered at platts and say on december twenty second. One says its above. All that fold. The sentence for the members of the road to capello was death by hanging killed a copy learned of the death of her husband in jail and. The next shock came on january twentieth one thousand nine hundred forty three when she herself was sentenced to death for the execution was to be carried out as soon as she had weaned her baby. And thats why the tradition and the sui of course that was a very difficult time for. Me because on the one hand she was very happy with me. And on the other advice i just bought that she knew it would come to an end at some point. Because the most meanwhile she was also thinking about me and in a certain way ordered that i would learn a trade and have a respectable job. That i shouldnt be spoiled too much. She was also worried about her mother and how that would continue. And thats why she made the decision to have her mother care for me so shed have something to do that there would be life there for her again to grieve and to feel as you. My dear mother soon it will be time for us to say farewell forever the hardest parts leaving my little hands is already behind being. Promised me for his sake stay brave and strong. Im going to my big guns now i hope that little hans has inherited the best in both of us. When you hold him to your breast your child will always be with you much nearer than i can be to you now. I hope little hands will grow up tough and strong. With the warm open hearted helpful down to earth character of his father. We loved each other very much and love guided our actions. My dear mother and my little hans all my love surrounds you always. Be brave the way im trying to be brave always your daughter hilda. The sentence was carried out on the same day hilda copy wrote that letter to her mother. Hitler rejected her request for clemency in july one nine hundred forty three. A guillotine was used to behead hilda copy at clintons a prison on august fifth one nine hundred forty three. Puns copy jr was raised by his grandmother. And was always aware that his parents were heroes. And was next to also those whether it was my grandmother tried of course to set up certain rules of behavior that i should adopt. And that were related to my late parents. Though sometimes it wasnt easy for me. Especially where people would praise my parents and. I didnt do me any good at all i missed them by force if you know i imagine i should i really feel version we dreamed as a boy that they might come back again that will be good because there was always someone showing up who was believed to have been long dead. Sons his parents staked everything on their beliefs and paid for it with their lives after the war they were honored as heroes in communist east germany there was even a stamp with the couples picture yet for hundreds jr its his mother as a person whos important shes far more than a resistance fighter. Who presumably didnt because. Ive got trouble with the concept of heroin. Because were talking about my mother. And it was always difficult for me to establish a relationship to or a heroine she was brave and all. And im sure she certainly was a heroine. But first and foremost for me shes my mother. And the more i get away from this heroine the nearer she is to me this is the new you know what is in your. Field a copy was a courageous woman and she was also a mother who loved her child. And my. Phone. And i didnt see and couldnt if you can see women as heroin its.
