Ep 58 Wolff Peace - Paul Le Meur & Le Chambon-sur-Lignon: A teacher. A village. A refusal to betray.
from Peace Is Here with Avis Kalfsbeek · host Avis Kalfsbeek
In this episode of the Wolff Peace series, host Avis Kalfsbeek explores the story of Paul Le Meur, a French teacher who faced an impossible moral decision during Nazi occupation—and chose not to comply. His story is paired with the extraordinary resistance of the villagers of Le Chambon-sur-Lignon, who sheltered thousands of Jews during the Holocaust without fanfare or credit. Both remind us that peace often lives in quiet places—and in the brave hearts of ordinary people.
