Fox News
Antony Blinken, the US Secretary of State, said the 1943 Polish Bialystok ghetto uprising reaffirmed the dignity of Jews during the holocaust. He called it an act of '"bravery."
"I see it as one of countless acts of resistance by Jews in ghettos and Nazi German concentration camps across Europe to reject their dehumanization, to reaffirm their dignity," Blinken said in a prerecorded message.
It was an act "not of futility but of bravery," he said, even though "survival was not on the cards" when the uprising began on the night of Aug. 16, 1943.
