Who or what was the white rose group in Nazis Germany?

Answer 1

It was a group of college students from Munich, Germany who started printing leaflets in opposition to Hitler's Nazi regime and its oppression in 1942-43. They hoped the German people would begin to question their government and begin fighting against it, especially after news came of the Soviet victory at Stalingrad in early 1943.

However, a rebellion never materialized and the group was arrested, interrogated, tried (in the unfair political courts), and either imprisoned or executed.

Answer 2

The White Rose (German: die Weiße Rose) was a non-violent/intellectual resistance group in Nazi Germany, consisting of students from the University of Munich and their philosophy professor. The group became known for an anonymous leaflet campaign, lasting from June 1942 until February 1943, that called for active opposition to dictator Adolf Hitler's regime.

The six core members of the group were arrested by the Gestapo (German secret police) and they were executed by decapitation in 1943. The text of their sixth leaflet was smuggled by Helmuth James Graf von Moltke out of Germany through Scandinavia to the United Kingdom, and in July 1943 copies of it were dropped over Germany by Allied planes, retitled "The Manifesto of the Students of Munich."

Today, the members of the White Rose are honored in Germany amongst its greatest heroes, since they opposed the Third Reich in the face of certain death.
