1. How would you summarize the purpose of the Nuremberg Laws?
The first three sections were about keeping Jews and Germans separated. Jews weren’t allowed to marry Germans in order to keep “German blood”. Jews also weren’t allowed to employ a young female German to prevent anything happening.
2. How did the laws you read and discussed contribute to creating the type of “national community” that the Nazis desired?
The Jews were separated from the Germans so that there wouldn’t be any Jewish German people. They would only be “pure Germans”.
I appreciate you providing specific examples of the laws we learned about.
What was the vocabulary word we learned that was used for “pure German?
Dear IOW,
I really enjoyed reading your blog, for we don’t learn much about the Nazi history and how the Jews were affected. I thought the topic was quite interesting considering the segregation between Jews and Germans. Good job!
