Little about history

Chill, it's really interesting and compulsory to know the history of this man!! I'll make it short and cool you won't regret it!!

Righteous among the Nations

It was 1944 and nazis rulled the world. They had already killed millions of jews and most people had lost all hopes of getting a better future. Nevertheless, some kept believing that good always wins over bad no matter the situation. And separetly risked their own life and family to help jews without asking anything in exchange. They are called Righteous among the Nations, these people can't be jew and they have a monument in the most important Holocaust museum in Israel ( where all their names are written).
Today, I'm going to tell the story of a brave man who helped and saved over 1200 jews in times of danger and rascism. His name is Oskcar Shindler and he was born in 1908 and died in Germany in 1974.
This brave man was an industrialist and saved people by taking them out of the camps and used the excuse of  hiring them in his own factories.
His story inspired various artists like Thomas Keneally ( the novel Schindler's Ark) and  Steven Spielverg (the film Schindler's List)

Hundreds of interesting real stories like this one exist!! for further information check out this site:
