When Hitler came to power, he changed things for them, including their beliefs. Nazis were originally German workers from 1919-1921 until they became soldiers. Before Hitler, Nazis held racist, Nationalist, and antisemitic beliefs. When Hitler came to power, he still held that but made them more of a cleaner and more organized army. Hitler tried to make the democratic committee with a single leader who would have ultimate control.…
In the book Holocaust by Angela Wood Hitler recruited unemployed young people and members of the lower middle class, and so they grew in power and numbers. “In the 1932 election, the Nazis won 33 percent of the votes, more than any other party.” Hitler rose to power, “In January 1933 Hitler was appointed Chancellor, the head of the German government. In his speeches Hitler spread his beliefs in racial purity and in the superiority of the Germanic race, what Hitler called an Aryan master race”. For Hitler, the ideal Aryan was blonde haired, blue eyed, and tall.…
During the Holocaust, Germany had just recently come into Nazi control under facist dictator, Adolf Hitler. In 1933, Hitler was elected as Chancellor of Germany, and he almost immediately began anti-Semitic Laws aimed to eliminate Jews' rights. Hitler had specific features that he felt made someone into a “perfect human.” He called these people the “Master Race.” He believed that the Aryan Races symbolized a superior and “pure race.”…
Basic freedoms such as race, ideology, sexuality, and religion were restricted by the Third Reich. The Nazi Regime restricted and slaughtered imperfect people, such as Jews, elderly, sickly, and homosexuals ("Third Reich." United States and "Third Reich." New World). The Nazi Party was obsessed with the idea of a flawless Aryan race in Germany. The Third Reich attempted achieving their goal of a perfect Aryan race by pushing women to have as many Aryan youths as possible, and murdering thousands who opposed their rule or even believed in a different God. The immense control of the Third Reich in Germany terrified Germans who opposed their rule, or was born a different color than the one they…
In Mein Kampf, Adolf Hitler expressed his opinion of how Germany should be ruled. While in prison for a five year sentence, but he only ended up serving a few months, for a failed coup known as the Beer Hall Putsch, he wrote an autobiography that he named Mein Kampf as stated on page 478 of Important World Leaders by Guliano. In Vienna, he formed this notion that Aryans are the superior, master race while trying to pursue his dream of art, which he later failed at (“Adolf Hitler” Baird). In Mein Kampf, he explained that pure Aryan blood signified the dominant race, and the enemy was “Jewry, communism, effete liberalism and decadent capitalism.” This displays a renewed German nationalism under fighting and suggests they take back the land lost to other countries (“Adolf Hitler” Baird). This book served as the political platform for the Nazi party. This is significant because without this book, the Nazis may have never believed the Aryans were superior and should be the only race left in Germany. Adolf Hitler openly expressed and flaunted his anti-Semitism (“Adolf Hitler” Fredriksen). Without this book, the Nazis possibly may not have been convinced that the Jews were the enemy and the Aryans are above all, allowing for a mass killing of the Jews and other religions. Fredriksen stated that Hitler wanted to extend Germany’s borders, which might have been the cause for the start of…
The Holocaust was and is amongst the most horrific, immoral and inhumane things that man has ever committed. This is because it legitimized discrimination and violence against targeted peoples,introduced and demonstrated genocide, and gave inspiration to other, similar monstrosities.…
Nazism was a form of government unlike any other in history. Lead by Adolf Hitler, the Nazis had distinct beliefs and policies, severe racism and hatred, strong, new family values, and plans for future Germany and the world. The Nazi party came to power in the early 1930s, thanks to Adolf Hitler. Hitler was loved and admired by all of his followers. The Nazis derived many symbols from ancient runes and made code names for things like their concentration camps. They also formed several new laws and restrictions. Racist beliefs and violent actions were all part of everyday life in Nazi Germany. Concentration camps killed millions of people using gas chambers and firing squads. The Jewish race was considered inferior, and therefore extremely and harshly discriminated against by law. Family values were encouraged, education was reformed, the women's roles were outlined, the Aryan race was to be the only race, and law controlled breeding. Education was reformed in order to benefit the state, not the individual. The woman's main role was to bear children, cook, and clean. The Aryan race was the only "superior" race, so therefore Hitler wanted to have all Aryan citizens. Only the elite would reproduce and inferior races were restricted from breeding with the superior race. Hitler had several plans for his new Germany and for the world as well. Hitler wanted leaders in Germany. He also wanted to control what everyone saw and heard to maintain a working state. The youth of the world was to be under Nazi control, and Europe and Russia were to be conquered. Approximately eleven million people died as a result of the Nazis. The Nazis were one of the most racist forms of government ever.…
" With the rise of the Nazi Party to leadership, Adolph Hitler became the leader of Germany. His government didn't follow the constitution, and his secret police eliminated all opposition. Hitler became known to the German people the leader. He believed that the German nationality was a superior race. Like other fascist governments, he waged endless war against the Jews, Roma, Slavs, and other nationalities that he considered to be inferior.…
“The Nazis believed that the Aryans had the most "pure blood" of all the people on earth. “To the Nazis, the term “Aryan” meant a non-Jewish, white, tall person with blonde hair and blue eyes.” According to Hitler in his book, Mein Kampf, "Blood sin and desecration of the race are the original sin in this world and the end of a humanity which surrenders to it" In this passage, he refers to the mixing of blood between races. Racist ideals were taught in school, Jewish establishments were boycotted and vandalized, homosexuals were spied on and the non-Aryan race was demonized.…
He believed that Germans were superior and therefore attempted to exterminate any other races that could interfere with his goal. Also, Hitler believed the Jews were a ‘low and evil’ race and blamed them for all social and economic problems in Germany. The Nazi party had extremely anti-Semitic ideologies, so when the Nazi’s rose to power they enforced laws which took away all human…
Nazism can be regarded as the most destructive force of the 20th century in part due to the sinister implications of Nazi racial policy on civilians amidst the European war. Essentially, the impact of Nazi race ideology was most adversely felt by the Jewish people as generations of Jews in both Germany and Nazi occupied territories were subjected to denationalization and subsequently mass-exodus under the banner of aryanisation and the policy of Lebensraum. Moreover, this form of race policy inclusive of the Nazi belief in the establishment of Herrenvolk or a master race is what led to the Holocaust, claiming the lives of more than 6 million Jews. Yet, the impact of Nazi racial policy did not only extend towards extermination but also forced upon a state of…
The Holocaust was one of the world’s greatest tragedies that was made possible by hatred, widespread anti-Semitism, and outright discrimination. It was the state-sponsored murder of six million Jews by Hitler and the Nazi party. In 1933, the Nazis came to power in Germany and they believed Jews were an inferior race, a threat to the superior Aryan community. Hitler also targeted other groups such as homosexuals, Gypsies, Poles, and the disabled because of their racial inferiority.…

According to them, Jews were not Aryans, and they thought that Jews belonged to a separate race that was inferior to all other races. The Nazis believed that Jews in Germany threatened the German citizens. The…
By discrimination we mean ‘the unjust or prejudicial treatment of different categories of people, especially on the grounds of race, age, or sex.’ In this case, the Jews were discriminated because of their religion. In Germany from 1933 to 1945 the Jewish people were discriminated against for a number of reasons which lead to poor treatment at the hands on the Nazis, these included social, violent, economic and political discrimination.…
