How Did The Nazis Obtain Pure Aryan Race?
One method used to obtain the “pure aryan race” was the lebensborn program, the word Lebensborn means “Fount of Life” (SS). The Nazis invented this program in order to create more supervised mating between pure aryan women and loyal SS men, so that their offspring would be more “Biologically valuable” (Reich 771). The lebensborn program used private funding, and was seen by the Nazis as a place for pregnant aryan women to go and receive protection while they were carrying a child. Mothers were allowed to be in the lebensborn program to have their babies and in most circumstances they were also allowed to raise their children as well. Himmler believed that the Nazis had provided a place for unwed mothers to go and have protection instead of

    During Nazi Germany, the Nazis first priority was taking over the state and controlling and dealing with their political enemies. However during the years 1933-1945, policies against the Jews were introduced. In 1938, German Jewish children were prohibited from attending German schools. Additionally in 1942 all Jewish residents had to wear the Star of David which segregated the Jews from the Germans. The Nazis obsession with creating a biologically pure, Aryan society deliberately targeted Jewish children, and the Laws introduced had a severe impact on the lives of children. The segregation didn’t allow the young children to live their lives, which affected them physiologically growing up. They would grow up to believe that they were different from others and that they were a complete different species, and no longer German.…

    The Holocaust is perhaps one of the most gruesome events that has ever taken place. Adolf Hitler was the mastermind behind the systematic, bureaucratic, and barbaric persecution that murdered six million Jews for no reason. When he became leader he had only one mission and that was to have an exceptional race and he would do everything to achieve it. The Nazis who came into power in Germany in January 1933, believed that Germans were racially superior and that the Jews were inferior and posed as a threat to the German community. Adolf and his “loyal” followers managed to instill fear in many Jews causing many to flee to safer havens. Other that weren’t as lucky fell into the hands of that Nazi regime. Those Jews that were persecuted and captured…

    The Nazis were not the first people to practice anti-Semitism, but is true that the Nazis practiced anti-Semitism in the most violent and horrifying way. This generalisation can be easily made because most people aren’t taught about pre-Nazi anti-Semitism so they presume that it was just practiced by the Nazis. Anti-Semitism had been around for nearly 2000 years before the Nazis. It changed over time as it started off as religious bullying with only a few physical and violent attacks before becoming more financial during the Industrial revolution.…

    First seen with the practice of sterilization, that became popularized five months into Adolf Hitler's rise to power (1933), when the Nazi’s began legalizing and enforcing non-voluntary sterilization for those deemed to possess a hereditary disorder or disease; that would retrograde advancements of the genetically and evolutionarily superior Aryan Race. The practice of sterilization in Nazi Germany would then begin to take form as the more extreme euthanasia program, which would subsequently lead to the establishment of the Nazi extermination camps. purpose built for the effective extermination of all those determined to be “unfit” for german society including Jews, Gypsies, Mentally Insane or Handicapped, Homosexual and other gender disordered individuals, as well as of those who were opposed to the Reich such as communists or democrats with the inclusion of prisoners of…

    The Eugenics Movement, which originated in the United States, later took place in Nazi Germany in an attempt to enhance the human race. Improving the human race in Nazi Germany meant destroying people that were considered unfit for the community. For instance, people with hereditary diseases, such as mental disabilities, epilepsy, schizophrenia, deafness, and blindness, were either forced to go through the sterilization process or gradually killed. The programs that were designed to help the ill and poor people were failing rapidly, so the government decided that these are just people with hereditary abnormalities and that nothing could be done to help them. They were just wasting money and taking up a lot of space in the hospitals. The government…

    I didn’t know that the Lebensborn program influenced the post-war lives of the many kids that were born, unknowingly, part of the project. When I read about the children who had to grow up ashamed and bullied because of their origins or even locked up in asylums so they wouldn’t have children themselves, I was shocked. In my head, it made sense they shouldn’t be blamed because they didn’t choose who their parents were, nor did they have any control on what they did. This is probably the thing, of all the ones I learned with this project, that made me realize that justice and equality aren’t always part of our society, even though they should be. One shouldn’t be blamed for someone else's acts if they weren’t knowingly and voluntarily taking part in them, it’s called justice. Everyone has the right to be treated equally, no matter their origins, that’s called equality. I also realized the importance of equality when I was reading about young girls, about my age, that had kids with strangers so they could spread the “Aryan race” or the married SS officers who would cheat on their wives so they could do their duty. It made me understand that people who think they are superior, or inferior in some cases, do stupid things as a result of their believes and it’s another reason why equality is important in…

    3 stages of the Holocaust

    The first phase began when the Nuremburg Laws were passed in 1935. These laws stripped Jews of their German citizenship, property, and jobs. Jews were required to wear a bright yellow Star of David attached to their clothing to make it easy for Nazis to identify them. The Nuremberg Laws, as they became known, did not define a, "Jew", as someone with particular religious beliefs. Instead, anyone who had three or four Jewish grandparents were defined as a Jew, regardless of whether that individual identified himself or herself as a Jew or belonged to the Jewish religious community. Many Germans who had not practiced Judaism for years found themselves caught in the grip of Nazi terror. The Nuremberg Laws also prohibited marriage between Aryans, which were considered Hitler’s master race and Jews. Hitler implemented these laws to ostracize, discriminate and expel Jews from German society. Hitler’s obsession to rid Europe of Jewish people created the, “Final Solution”. This phase was the implementation of committing mass genocide of the Jewish people. To preserve Hitler’s, “master race”, the Nazis condemned to slavery and death not only the Jews but also other groups that they viewed as inferior or unworthy were considered enemies of the state. The Nazis silenced all of their political opponents regardless of their political affiliation. Many Jews were re-located into ghettos. Ghettos were segregated areas where Jews lived. Life inside the ghetto was a living hell. The Jews were forced to work in German…

    One of the main sociological perspectives that fall into Nazi Germany and how Holocaust was looked at was social stratification. The Aryan race was supreme; anybody else was lower then they. (Nazi SS) Jews, homosexuals, handicapped, prisoners of war, and minority groups were all prosecuted. As talked about in lecture, Max Weber’s theory of social class portrayed Adolf Hitler’s wealth, power, and prestige. Hitler used these components to his advantage and started an empire. Brainwashing Germans to hate and murder humans that are not in their “social class”, as said the Aryan race. Social class and inequality played a big role for the non-Aryan. Everything was stripped away from them such as cars, money, children, clothes, food, and eventually their hope. The people of culture of poverty had strong feeling of not belonging, helplessness, no faith, and all hope was gone. Jews and others were treated as aliens or non-humans.…

    At this point in time, which was the early decades of the 1900’s, war made life chaotic. The acceptance of Eugenics promoted a more peaceful, proper future (which we today can obviously see as being severely incorrect!). Scientifically, Eugenics was also receiving praise. It was viewed as being a way to improve humanity. There was a fear that the intelligent people would have fewer kids, and the “less than adequate” would in turn have more kids. It was believed that this would have a negative impact on natural selection, and be harmful to society. To promote such an idea, there were two main “methods”- positive eugenics and negative eugenics. The former involves trying to promote the healthy/regular people to have children. The negative eugenics system involved using medical and sterilization (which I will discuss more later on) processes to prevent the others from having kids. Awkwardly enough, to be deemed “unfit” and to undergo negative eugenics was not a punishment. After all, people viewed the problem as being a defective…

    Prison gangs are a way of life for those that are incarcerated in federal and also state prisons. Gangs, organize the races in the prison system. They offer protection to their members and also run the drug, alcohol and other crime in that facility. In return each gang expects loyalty to the cause from their members. Prison gangs are extremely organized and have many secrets, no one will ever know everything that the gangs plan or are responsible for. Each race has their own separately ran gang some of the races have more than one gang to choose from. For example in Arizona alone there have been several gangs that the Arizona Department of Corrections have validated as a threat in and outside of the prison they include, Dine’ Pride, Warrior Society, New Mexican Mafia, Old Mexican Mafia, Boarder Brothers and The Aryan Brotherhood just to name a few. Each gang has their own set of “guidelines” as to the type of member they will accept. They also have their own rules on how each member must behave. If an inmate meets the guidelines of their chosen gang he/she must then prove one’s self to the other members by following the directions given by a higher up member. Prison gangs are very powerful; within each gang there are several levels of membership that gives members different responsibilities.…

If you are not a blonde haired, blue eyed man that worships God and only God then what are you? Only a mere loose brick in their footpath.
