Dietrich Bonhoeffer

A pacifist pastor who concluded that faith demanded he act — and joined the plot against Hitler.

Theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer resisted the Nazi regime and was executed at Flossenbürg two weeks before its liberation. (Framed apolitically — his legacy is contested in modern culture wars.)
