I thought it was good and that the men involved deserved to be remembered
for being Germans who tried to “stop” Hitler.

Agreed.
And The White Rose participants deserve a decent presenatation that
translates to American/English (Anglosphere) audiences.
If The History Channel has talked about them...I’ve missed it.
(Which is possible as I’m not omnipresent...LOL!!!)

The White Rose (German: die Weiße Rose) was a non-violent resistance group in Nazi Germany, consisting of a number of students from the University of Munich and their philosophy professor.- Wekipedia

There were 6 (SIX) core members? SIX people? The total resistance to Hitler could be put on a school bus - with plenty of empty seats? Shame on them - shame on the Germans.

If the History Channel had talked about the White Rose patriots they would have probably portrayed them as racist homophobic whites who, oh by the way, didn’t agree with Hitler. I watch History Channel presentations with a very jaundiced eye.
