Go see this movie!

I just saw Sophie Scholl: The Final Days. It's the story of a 21-year-old university student from Munich who, along with her brother and some friends, dared to criticize Hitler in the midst of World War II. Tremendously inspiring--makes you think about right and wrong, your own courage (or lack thereof), and the nature of true heroism.

This story should be taught in every American school. Ordinary students, with everything to live for, standing up to the most brutal killers simply because their conscience told them to. I am awed by it.
