Abba Kovner Resister Abba Kovner was born in 1918 at the Crimean Black Sea port city in Poland (now Lithuania). Abba Kovner was Jewish. During 1933 through 1945 Abba Kovner was one of the leaders of a organization called Ha-Shomoer-ha- Tsair. During the holocaust Abba Kovner and his others hid in a Dominican Convent while the Nazi’s were doing round ups. When he was still in the Dominican Convent, Kovner learned about the killings that the Nazi’s were responsible for. He vowed to fight the against Holocaust. Abba Kovner was a resister. He was a resister because when he heard about the killings the Nazi’s were responsible for he got his group and the other leaders of the organization to try to help the others escape from the Holocaust, allowing him to survive the Holocaust. If Abba Kovner didn’t save the others from the Holocaust, those people wouldn’t be able to have lives. They wouldn’t be able to have children, work at jobs that they wanted to do, and have grand-children. Abba Kovner died in 1987, he was 69 years old.
