Yesterday marked the 78th anniversary of the deaths of Nazi resisters Hans
and Sophie Scholl and Christoph Probst, executed by the Third Reich in
1943. Next week, join us online to remember them and celebrate the launch
of a new graphic novel telling their story.

As core members of the student group The White Rose, these young people
were decidedly antifascist. But their convictions were, in many ways, quite
distinct from most who claim the antifa label today. Devout Christians and
passionate German patriots, they wrote and distributed a series of leaflets
which sought to arouse Germans’ cultural memory and conscience, quoting
Schiller, Goethe, Aristotle, and Novalis.

On March 4 at 7:30 PM ET, join Maximilian Probst, Christoph’s grandson; the
philosopher Dr. Jennifer Frey of the University of South Carolina; activist
Aimee Murphy of Rehumanize International; and youth educator Lisabeth
Button for an online conversation to launch *Freiheit!*, Plough’s new
graphic novel about the lives and deaths of the White Rose members. Plough
Senior Editor Susannah Black will moderate.
