A: The Nazis did not only discriminate against the Jews. They also murdered other races such as Gypsies and Slavs for their "racial inferiority", since the Nazis believed that "superior races" had not just the ability to kill other races,but an obligation to do so, and the Russians, Poles and other eastern Europeans that happened to be in the Nazi's way were killed. The Nazi party did not care about who they killed, and killing people was often one of the Nazi's goals. While the Nazi's killed around 6 million Jews, there were more than 10 million other people that were also killed by Nazi's.]]> 2018-04-09 15:23:53 UTC https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/249862877 https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/249863116 Q: Describe what the Nuremberg Laws are and what is the Aryan race?

A: The Nuremberg Laws were laws that defined the Jews so that they could be kept separate. Jews were not defined by participating in or identifying oneself as a Jew, but instead it was anyone who had three or four Jewish grandparents. Even those who had converted were persecuted because of their grandparents. Someone with two full Jewish grandparents are also classified as a Jew if they belonged to a Jewish community when the law was issued or after, married a Jew, or an offspring to a marriage with a Jew. The Nuremberg Laws also kept the Jews separated and took away certain rights they previously had. The Aryan race was what the Nazi's thought of as the perfect or "master race". These people were usually tall, blonde and blue-eyed. During this time they created a process called "Aryanization"  where they would drive Jews out of their jobs and replace them with non-Jews. This was unfair because the Jews had no way to defend themselves from this.]]> 2018-04-09 15:24:15 UTC https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/249863116 https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/249863510 Q: Describe Kristallnacht and what this German word means.
A:  Kristallnacht was an incident that took place on November 9th and November 10th in 1938. During Kristallnacht,  German Nazis unleashed their violence on  the German-Jewish community. The Nazis ransacked and burned more than 7,000 Jewish-owned shops and warehouses as well as scorched almost 300 synagogues, or Jewish churches, to the ground. Not only that, but the Nazis also murdered about 100 Jews  and arrested about 30,000 on that night. The broken glass of windows that littered the sidewalks the next day gave the violent night its name of Kristallnacht, which in English means, the "Night of Broken Glass". The Nazis did this because a student in Paris named Herschel Grynspan went to the German Embassy in Paris and shot and killed the first official he came across, Ernst vom Rath, because he heard his father's struggles on the German-Polish border. After hearing of this, the Nazis wanted revenge and got it on the night of Kristallnacht. Even after Kristallnacht, conditions for German-Jews grew worse and they were even fined 1 billion Reichsmarks, or $400 million, for the whole situation as well as were held responsible for the Nazi damage done.]]> 2018-04-09 15:24:52 UTC https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/249863510 https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/249863916 Anti-Semitism is a phrase that means, according to page 6, racial prejudice against Jews. The definition of prejudice is a preconceived opinion that is not based on reason or actual experience. Prejudice is very wrong, and racial prejudice is even worse. This should have never even existed in society.]]> 2018-04-09 15:25:28 UTC https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/249863916 https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/249878497 https://www.ushmm.org/wlc/en/article.php?ModuleId=10007457

The Nazis would lose their scapegoat if too many Jews escaped, and neither America nor Britain would admit them.]]> 2018-04-11 19:22:42 UTC https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/250899986 https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/250901038 Q: "How was propaganda used to convince people against those that Nazis wanted to separate?"
A:  Propaganda is a kind of persuasive art usually to change one's political views. The Nazis wanted to hide any wrong-doings of their party and persuade others that they are morally the 'correct' side. This made the Nazis look amazing and angelic, like they could not sin. That is a very appealing claim to  Germany, which was in the midst of economic problems.]]> 2018-04-11 19:25:41 UTC https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/250901038 https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/250905657 2018-04-11 19:38:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/250905657 https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/250906032 2018-04-11 19:39:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/250906032 https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/250906361 2018-04-11 19:40:31 UTC https://padlet.com/ssosa28/persecution_p2/wish/250906361
