In the movie Schindler’s List we see the story of Oskar Schindler play out and the great deeds he did to save the lives of many Jewish people and because of this I would say the central theme to Schindler’s List is the great amount of change any one person can make‚ and this reminds us as a religion class that we too can make meaningful change no matter what.

The Schindler’s List is Steven Spielberg’s award-winning film which illustrates the profoundly nightmarish Holocaust.

Although some of the greatest leaders in history lead for a more notorious cause‚ the leadership skills they conveyed and followed were key to the success of their goal and accomplishments.
