Crown Worthy

Lepa Radic, was a 17-year-old Bosnian teenager who was executed for shooting at the Nazis during World War II.

In her last minutes of life, they offered to spare her life in exchange for the names of her accomplices, she refused saying:

"I am not a traitor to my people. Those whom you ask will make themselves known when they have succeeded in annihilating all evildoers, every last one of them."

This girl, barely 17 years old, was sentenced to the noose.

I would like this to be known, this girl deserves that her story be told, thus without filters, so that they can see that she was afraid of death, yes, but she was so brave that she preferred to be hanged before betraying her compatriots.
