Nothing wrong with the history presented in this last episode of season two, but the decision to focus on two figures alone as emblematic of German resistance to the Nazis and Hitler, Sophie Scholl and Claus von Stauffenberg, gave undeserved short shrift to other equally or even more significant opposition figures. The moral stand taken by Catholic and Lutheran pastors like Bishop Clemens von Galen of Münster, Martin Niemöller and Dietrich Bonhoeffer arguably formed the intellectual background of the student resistance. (Von Galen's sermons were reprinted in the White Rose leaflets.)
The producers seem to have focused on Sophie Scholl in large part because she was a young woman, a more sympathetic counterpoint to the aristocratic Wehrmacht officer, Stauffenberg. But the impression was given that Sophie was the sole animating force the of the Munich student resistance, neglecting to mention her brother Hans, or Christoph Probst, who were arrested and executed with Sophie.
In part, this can be explained by the format of "talking head" historians explaining the motivations of the key figures in Nazi Germany. If, hypothetically, you choose a feminist historian to speak for Sophie Scholl, you are unlikely to hear much about her male comrades. But perhaps more pointedly, the series is locked into the subtext of resistance to rising authoritarianism in the present, so who better than.a 21-year old university student, who experiences a moral awakening and becomes a martyr for freedom and justice to inspire young people in the present?
