Abstract

The article discusses the history of anti-Semitism. Topics discussed include anti-Semitism finding clearest expression in the Nuremberg race laws of 1935, focusing on the Law for the Protection of German Blood and Honor, Jews having lost their political rights due to the Nuremberg laws, and the eventual dismissal of Jewish professors, teachers, and physicians from state employment by a supplemental decree, though at first they had been granted exemptions. It also talks about the similarities between the German persecution of Jews with the persecution of African Americans.
