What connections do you find between the passage The Grand Mosque of Paris and the KEY CONCEPT of the unit (connections), and how is it also related with the KEY CONCEPTS of units 1 and 2 (Culture and Creativity)?

Before we start talking about the connection about the story with the concept of unity, I am going to talk about the story was about. The Grand Mosque of Paris is the story of the Muslim community of Paris during the Nazi occupation of World War II and their efforts to rescue Jews. The mosque constructed in 1926 had space for a community center, library, restaurant, clinic and apartments for the functionaries. It was built upon a labyrinth of subterranean tunnels and rooms, areas that had been excavated for building stones for the city of Paris. These underground passages and catacombs served as hiding places and escape routes for those hunted by the French police and Gestapo. The rescue and escape of Jews was under the leadership of the Rector, Si Kaddour Benghabrit, and a sophisticated Algerianborn diplomat, who was considered the most powerful Muslim in France at the time. The clerics provided sanctuary, certificates of Muslim identity and safe passage for those who sought their help. It is noted that at least 100 Jews, downed Allied airmen, Resistance fighters and escaped prisoners of war, were also spirited to safety. These righteous saviors deserve to be honored and their deeds told. The association between the key concept of the unit (connections) with the story is that we can link the second war with this story we can understand this story because we have seen this topic, and the other key concept of the units that we can connects are Culture and Creativity. Why these? Because in this story we see culture of the Jewish and also we can see creativity to see how incredible they devised plans.
