Social Studies - The Holocaust

Today in Social Studies we have been learning about The Holocaust. We also have been learning about Hitler and the Jews, and what Hitler actually said about the Jews. There are two quotes from what Hitler actually said about the Jews and we had to explain how these statements represent anti-semitism. 

QUOTE: “The Jews were responsible for bringing Negroes into the Rhineland with the ultimate idea of bastardising (lowering the quality of) the white race which they hate and thus lowering its cultural and political level so that the Jew might dominate.”

- In this quote Hitler was saying that they lower the quality of the white race. He was also explaining that the Jews were lowering its cultural and political level.

QUOTE: “The Jewish youth lies in wait for hours on end...spying on the unsuspicious German girl he plans to seduce.....he wants to contaminate her blood and remove her from the bosom of her own people. The Jew hates the white race and wants to lower its cultural level so that the Jews might dominate.”

- In this quote Hitler was explaining that the Jewish youth was spying on a unsuspicious German girl and they plan to seduce. Hitler was also explaining that they want to contaminate her blood and remove her from the bosom of her own peoples.
