Presentation Abstract

Before the Holocaust was fully happening the treatment of Jews in Germany began deteriorating in the late 1920's early 1930's. As the German government attempted to sway the population against Jews various propaganda pieces were put out, some directly influencing children such as children's books, and laws were put into place preventing Jews from truly being German citizens. The treatment of Jews was a slow decline as the Aryans slowly had to form the ideas that the Jews, and other atypical people, were truly second-class citizens to the Aryans. By creating a feeling of disdain towards the Jews, the German government was able to begin implementing the Nuremberg Laws which economically, politically, and socially ruined and ostracized the Jewish population. These laws and lack of intervention provided a stepping stone in which the Germans could eventually begin the Final Solution and begin exterminating the Jews, people they saw as inferior.

Impact of Nuremberg Laws on Jews

Brittain Hall, Room 114

Before the Holocaust was fully happening the treatment of Jews in Germany began deteriorating in the late 1920's early 1930's. As the German government attempted to sway the population against Jews various propaganda pieces were put out, some directly influencing children such as children's books, and laws were put into place preventing Jews from truly being German citizens. The treatment of Jews was a slow decline as the Aryans slowly had to form the ideas that the Jews, and other atypical people, were truly second-class citizens to the Aryans. By creating a feeling of disdain towards the Jews, the German government was able to begin implementing the Nuremberg Laws which economically, politically, and socially ruined and ostracized the Jewish population.
