Chad Gibbs is a PhD candidate in the Department of History at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. He earned an MA in history at the University of Nebraska at Omaha and his BA in history at the University of Wyoming. His dissertation project, “Against that Darkness: Perseverance, Resistance, and Revolt at Treblinka,” adds to our understanding of life inside this camp by exploring inmate relationships - or social networks - and how prisoners leveraged these bonds to gain some measure of control over lethally restricted camp geography.
