#OnThisDay, 22 Feb 1943, Sophie Scholl is sentenced to death and immediately executed for distributing anti-Nazi literature at her university in Munich, Germany alongside her brother Hans. Hans was also killed.

“How can we expect righteousness to prevail when there is hardly anyone willing to give himself up individually to a righteous cause... It is such a splendid sunny day, and I have to go.”
