Dehumanization

My topic is about how Hitler dehumanized Hebrews through propaganda and the Nuremberg Laws. This event was always so interesting to me, because Episcopal never taught us anything that happened in the 19th century, with the exception of 6th grade in science when Mrs.Perret explained about the first rocket launch. So for a while I will admit I had none, to very little knowledge of the holocaust, but now I know much of it. I have learned about the concentration camps and how many people died in the Holocaust (1.3 million). Hitler thought that the Hebrews were to blame for their falling economy, and the lost of World War One. Once, he was let out of prison in 1930, became the superior of Germany right after the previous superior died, he then went on campaigns telling the public, persuading them that Hebrews were below humans. He persuaded children through the use of media, comic books, and art that Hebrews were mean and vengeful. In 1935, he finally came up with 435 laws (give or take) discriminating against Hebrews. These set of laws separated Hebrews from society, they were not allowed to have intercourse with people out of the Jewish religion, they were not allowed to drive in their own cars, and were also enforced to sow the star of david on their clothing so that it was easy for Germans to distinguish if it was a Hebrew or not. In the eyes of public they were now completely separated from society, they were now pariahs, outcast in their own home. The public then truly believed that Hebrews were not human they were just as good as dogs. 

Humans have segregated one another since the 300 AD, whether it was race, ethnic group, or religion. In 1931 Adolf Hitler came in to reign, defacing Hebrews of their human rights. He dehumanized Hebrews, so the question I'm going to answer is how. How did Hitler dehumanize Jews? He used the combination of powerful propaganda & the Nuremberg Laws to enforce his opinions of the people of Germany on the Hebrews. The Hebrews in result were below dogs, they were the destroyers of Germany, and would be the reason for Germany falling as a country in Hitler's and the rest of Germans eyes, even though Hebrews made up than 1% less of the population.  This matter interest many in a variety of ways. I always had this distorted infatuation of the Holocaust. I want to know why the people thought it was right, why Hitler thought it was ok to kill 1.3 million people .2 of those children. Propaganda,  the Nuremberg Laws and Hitlers persuasive campaigning are to claim for the torture of Hebrews. It persuaded children to hunk that Hebrews were below them, the reason in fall of the economy, and the loss of world war 2. This is truly a ghastly event, and hasn't brought me much solace since I started researching this topic.

What is your favorite book and why?

For christmas I received the book It by Alexa Chung. I immediately devoured the book within the day, astounded by the books personality, truth,  and original voice, it's hard not to like. The book is basically is a style manual on what inspires her to be the stylist she is today. She has from Audrey Hepburn to the Rolling Stones of two of her many inspirations. Her book doesn't only talk about clothes, it talks about the generations and how much and the different thing within them.

It is really just an enjoyable book to read, because its like a chick-flick book almost. It talks about heart-breaks, diets, and other feline like things. There are so many interesting artsy pictures in there its almost overwhelming. I love this book, and I hope everybody reads it.

How the Nuremberg Laws affect the Hebrews during World War 2 in Poland

My topic started off with how the discrimination between Hebrews and Germans, affected the Hebrews, then I realized how broad it was. So, then I narrowed my topic down to one set of laws, the time period, and where. At the beginning of the year I thought this topic was very interesting, and I still think it is, until I realized how many other people were doing there project on the Holocaust as well. I then wanted to make mine different so that is when I started narrowing down my topic, so I would have a little diversity compared to others. 

My process, right now is to include more databases in my research, and find more primary sources. I know I can find more primary sources, like some of Picasso's work, but I need to make the effort to do it. Yesterday, Dr. deGravelles mentioned google scholar, and that sounds like a great way to help me with my research.
