One day, far in the future, a man will walk into a library and pick up a WW2 book.
Wow, a book from 5, 000 years ago.
He will skim through it. He will put the book down and look at his face.
Huh, we share that same mustache.
And then he will walk out, and the sands of the past will protect him from the backlash of a previously devastated generation.

I think this is especially beautiful as this is among other things a story of empathy even between generations, Religions and nationalities.
We can all learn a bit, always helping others no matter if it's picking up a book or helping people escape death or oppression.

Meaning that there would have probably been 2000 more dead children if Irena Sendler didn't grew up in a predominantly jewish town, or if her father didn't give a damn about jews. Kinda interesting how fate works.

This is still happening. You just don't see it. You might have but, it probably softened through the media. It is also not just in one country but to many.

What a powerful story! It's a shame Sandler's story isn't more well known, doubly so that the Polish government tried to supress her story

I was taught by my father that when someone is drowning you don't ask if they can swim, you just jump in and help.
