An example of antisemitism is when Nazi Germany and other collaborators killed Jewish people. The word antisemitism means hatred of Jews. The most common antisemitism throughout history were violent riots that were against Jews, government authorities encouraged this. There would be false rumors that Jews use the blood of Christian children to do rituals. There were political parties that were formed in Germany, France, and Austria. They made publications to spread the hatred of Jews. One of their publication was the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. In those publication, they blamed the Jews for many things. They said that Jews were unloyal citizens. When the Nazi's took over Germany, they started a economic boycott and burned all Jews books and writings. The Numberg Laws defined Jew by "blood" and they seperated "Aryans" and "non-Aryans." The Nazi's destroyed Synagogues and windows of stores owned by Jews. They did that in Germany and Austria.

ReplyDeleteI think it's just horrible that they burned their writings and synagogues. Burning of holy places such as churches is wrong no matter what country you're from!
