Here was a trailblazing reporter who rose to the position of chief correspondent for Central Europe, making her America&#8217;s first woman bureau chief at a foreign desk, and who refused to be silenced by the Nazis at the most dangerous time. I cannot believe that I hadn&#8217;t heard of this amazing woman until earlier this week!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She stayed in Germany throughout the 1930s and the lead-up to WW2, filing reports about concentration camps, government assaults on churches and other institutions, telling the truth about increasing persecution of Germany&#8217;s Jews, warning about dangerous alliances with other countries, and otherwise trying to convince the world of the atrocities she was witnessing, all while facing both the dangers of being a reporter on the ground and dealing with an uninterested public back home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think it&#8217;s natural to wonder what we&#8217;d do in these kinds of terrible challenges. I sincerely hope I would find the strength to be as fearless as Sigrid Schultz. What a truly remarkable, inspirational woman! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more about her life and work: <a href=\"https:\/\/selfrescuingprincesssociety.blogspot.com\/2017\/01\/sigrid-schultz-dragon-from-chicago.html\">https:\/\/selfrescuingprincesssociety.blogspot.com\/2017\/01\/sigrid-schultz-dragon-from-chicago.html<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read about other amazing role models from history: <a href=\"https:\/\/selfrescuingprincesssociety.blogspot.com\/search\/label\/role%20models\">https:\/\/selfrescuingprincesssociety.blogspot.com\/search\/label\/role%20models<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Support SRPS: <a href=\"https:\/\/selfrescuingprincesssociety.blogspot.com\/p\/srpss.html\">https:\/\/selfrescuingprincesssociety.blogspot.com\/p\/srpss.html<\/a><\/p>\n\n      ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>        There are so many stories of heroism from WW II.
