The Treatment of Jews Under Nazi Power

The Treatment of Jews Under Nazi Power Whilst in prison, Adolf Hitler wrote ‘Mein Kampf’ in which he declared

that the Jews were lazy and worthless to society. He claimed, "Jewish

youth lies in wait for hours on end satanically glaring at and spying

on the unconscious girl whom he plans to seduce, adulterating her

blood with the ultimate idea of bastardizing the white race which they

hate and thus lowering its cultural and political level so that the

Jew might dominate."

When Hitler’s Nazi party came to power in 1933, the new government

began a campaign of blind discrimination against the Jews.

Starting just weeks after the party came to power, with an attempted

boycott of Jewish shops. However, there was little response to this

from the German public so it was abandoned.

The resentment of the Jews increased, with many shops and Restaurants

deciding not to serve the Jewish race, the Jews were being ousted out

of Germany, not just by the political leaders, but now by the public

as well.

In 1933 the Jews started to lose rights. They lost the right to be

German citizens and it became illegal for Jews to inherit land.
