In Part One, Tom Herring and Dr Alexandra Lloyd take us into the world of the White Rose. We’ll find out who they were, how they were connected, and unpack the question of what led them to resist and ultimately risk everything. “...soon there won’t be anything but politics, and as long as politics is this confused and evil, turning away from it would be cowardly.” - Sophie Scholl (1940).

Hosts Tom Herring and Dr Alexandra Lloyd set out what to expect from the series, and introduce the history of the White Rose resistance: five students and a professor who stood up to Nazism and paid with their lives. “There is no punishment on this earth that would do justice to the crimes of Hitler and his inner circle. But out of love for the coming generations, an example must be set…so that no one will ever feel even the slightest inclination to commit such acts again…” - Pamphlets of the White Rose IV.
Munich, 1942. War rages across Europe. After nearly a decade of Nazi rule, Hitler is at the height of his power. Anyone who dares to oppose the regime risks imprisonment, deportation, and even death. Any form of opposition is unimaginably dangerous. To stand up and speak out would take incredible strength and courage. There were some willing to take that risk.
