Adolf Hitler was an Austrian man who fought in World War I as a German soldier. After Germany's defeat, Hitler attempted to illegally assume power. He was promptly arrested and sentenced to five years in prison. He served only nine months. At that time, Hitler wrote a book titled “Mein Kampf,” which translates to “My Struggle.” In "Mein Kampf" he talks about his ideas for the future of Germany, which he titled "Final Solution". After his release, Hitler joined the Nazi Party and controlled it a few years later. He slowly gained power in the German government and in 1933 was appointed Chancellor of Germany. He eventually removed the office of president in Germany (after the death of the previous president), leaving Hitler as Germany's sole leader. Hitler used persuasion and propaganda in his speeches to promote his anti-Semitic views. He stereotyped “undesirables” and erased suspicion from his name using these strategies. Hitler used his power in the German government to make laws that controlled what undesirables could do and where they could go. These laws, established in 1935, were titled the Nuremberg Racial Laws. Over the course of eight years, Hitler changed the laws, making them increasingly stricter. Jews had to register and lost businesses and homes. Jews could not marry anyone with German blood, had their passports stamped or stolen, and could not travel on public transportation. In 1942 all Jews were required to wear the Star of David on their coats. The Nuremberg racial laws took away their humanity and individuality. All of these restrictions were completely legal because Hitler was given the authority to change the government. The Holocaust was the deliberate isolation and system......center of the card......and even one version has an introduction by Eleanor Roosevelt, the first lady during World War II. Let us learn about the Holocaust to ensure that genocide never happens again. No one should be killed or abused because of their race, the way you live, or the way you look. We must study the Holocaust and those affected by it to understand the tragedy in its entirety. We remember those who have struggled and lost their lives to hate crimes and racism. Many people don't realize that hate crimes and racism are still present around the world. We don't live in a perfect world. People continue to die because of the color of their skin and the way they look. People continue to be stereotyped and are losing basic human rights because someone, somewhere, doesn't believe they deserve to be free. If we don't study the past, we can't be sure it won't happen again in the future.
