Description:
In this lesson students will learn about Italian citizens and public officials who ignored certain laws during the 1930’s and 1940’s to follow what they felt was a higher law. They took action to protect Jewish people from persecution under Nazi policies enacted in Italy as a result of Italy’s alliance with Germany. Students will learn how Italians tended to be less supportive of the extreme measures taken against the Jews by the Nazis.
