I just finished reading ‘Alexander Schmorell Saint Of The German Resistance’ by Elena Perekrestov. Schmorell was one of the authors of the White Rose leaflets, who was martyred for his convictions. Alexander’s story is one of hope. Hope is something we need in these dark times.
Recently I've seen a fair amount of far-right propaganda spread around my area (US) by a group using the name The White Rose. If you are familiar and feel inclined, there are several groups they have made on Telegram. As far as I can tell right now, it seems to be a mere group of street teams, but it's hard to tell where it originates from. Upon investigation, the individual members truly identify with the true White Rose and believe themselves to be fighting the same fight, which is what concerns me the most. I have reason to believe that this same movement extends into Canada and Europe. My plea is to keep your eyes open. Resist this where it appears. Deface every last shred of propaganda they spread. They are not The White Rose and do not deserve to carry the name of the brave men and women who were murdered for resisting exactly what these people seek to spread.
