Coming to Terms with the Holocaust, Part 3: Nazis, Propaganda, and the Jews

In 1933, Jews represented less than 1% of Germany's population.

And yet, Hitler, Goebbels, and the Nazi propaganda machine persuaded educated, civilized Germans that this valuable, productive minority was an insidious and deadly bacillus threatening the life of their nation.

In this course, we examine Nazi speeches, newspapers, books, posters, films—and the response of Germany's Jewish community—to discover how the Nazis turned the hearts, minds, and very language of the German people against the Jews.

This course will be recorded.

Enrolled students will have access to videos for the duration of the course.
