 Explain something interesting about the White Rose protest and one other 21st-century protest movement of your choice. The purpose of this explanation is up to you. Some examples might be: to give a correct description of a movement instead of what the media claims, to explain how the White Rose and the protest movement you chose were dangerous or needed, to explain how each movement publicized itself, to explain how people react to protests and why etc. Whatever your purpose, make sure you make that clear in the thesis and that your entire paper is focused on the purpose stated in your thesis. Note: You are explaining (relaying interesting facts you discovered), not arguing (taking sides against others).
