André Trocmé
Om författaren
André Trocmé was a notable French Protestant pastor and a key figure in the resistance against the Holocaust during World War II. He is best remembered for his courageous efforts to save Jewish lives in France, particularly in the village of Le Chambon-sur-Lignon, where he led a community that provided shelter and protection to thousands of Jews fleeing the Nazi regime. Trocmé's commitment to nonviolence and moral integrity inspired many, as he believed in the inherent dignity of every human being, regardless of their background.
