Risking It All and Protecting the People
Oskar Schindler did all that he could for his factory workers. Although Jews were to labor for a low pay, there was an abundance of benefits in taking the job. His Jewish workers were protected from the violence of SS officers, hunger, and illness.
"He [also] millions of reichmarks to sustain his workers... and bribe Reich officials."
-Cooney, "Schindler's List"
"[In addition,] Schindler used his intelligence-gathering skills to keep Stern and the Jewish community informed about German activities suggest that he already disapproved of German policies and worked with Stern and Bankier to thwart them."
-Oskar Schindler by Bruce Thompson
