 You tell me below:

 Genocide-  Deliberate and systematic extermination of a national, racial, political, or cultural group  Anti-Semitism-  Discriminate against Jews  “Final Solution”- plan to murder the Jewish people

 Estimated 11 million people killed during Holocaust  6 million were Jews  1.1 million were children  Nazis killed about 2/3 of the Jews living in Europe

 Practiced “anti-semitisim”-  Discriminate against Jews  It was not just the Jews who were a part of the Holocaust..  Roma were also discriminated against (Gypsies)  Homosexuals  Jehovah’s Witnesses  Disabled people

 Felt Jews had natural impulse for world domination.  Nazis believed it was an “us” VS. “them” scenario  “all of history is a fight between races, which would culminate either in the triumph of the superior “Aryan” race or its total extinction.”  What is a common Jewish stereotype?  Nazis believed

 Nazis believed the Jews were inferior race  What is a common Jewish stereotype?  Nazis believed the Jews would use their ‘supposed’ control of world finances and of world mass media to support Communist uprisings and to encourage other “inferior” races to overwhelm the “Aryans”

 Negative and false stereotypes such as….  Murders of Christ  Agents of the Devil  Practitioners of witchcraft  Blamed for the failure in WWI “The Jews are our misfortune”

 Germans who didn’t participate were not punished  BUT they risked peer, social and professional exclusion or disadvantage  How does this relate to the movie?  Partner up and discuss where you see this happening in your lives…..  Once they joined, if the Nazis refused to carry out direct orders then- disciplined, dismissed, imprisoned, or killed

 More than 10,000 Jews died in fighting for Germany in WWII  Passed discriminatory laws targeting Jews at a gradual pace (slow pace)  Difficult to find other countries to let them in  The Jews did fight back against the Germans, and did not “just let the Holocaust happen”
