Kick off Women’s History Month with a powerful program that reclaims women’s voices in Holocaust history.

In The Girl Bandits of the Warsaw Ghetto, Holocaust historian Elizabeth Hyman challenges long-standing narratives of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising by centering five young Polish Jewish women whose courage, ingenuity, and leadership were essential to Jewish resistance.

Known as “the girls” by resistance leaders and dismissed as “bandits” by their Nazi oppressors, these women served as fighters, commanders, couriers, and smugglers—risking everything to sustain underground networks and armed revolt. 

This conversation invites us to reconsider:

What resistance truly looked like
Who carried it out
Why these stories of courage, daring, and defiance must never be forgotten
