OSCAR SCHINDLER

Saved Twelve Hundred Jews

Member of Nazi Party

Flawed but righteous man

***

Oskar Schindler saved over 1,000 Jews from the Holocaust. He hired Jews to work in his factories, assuring the Nazis that the Jews were skilled workers, although they often were not, and he paid the Nazis a fee for the use of the Jews’ labor. In addition, he paid bribes as necessary to keep the Nazis from sending his workers to the death camps. Sometimes, Nazi inspectors came to his factory to see the work of the “skilled” Jews. Whenever that happened, Mr. Schindler got the Nazis drunk so they wouldn’t inspect the work too closely.
