Eugene Black's Impact On The Nazi-Anti-Jewish Community

Decent Essays
“In mid-March 1945 Eugene was sent to Bergen Belsen, which he describes as ‘a hellhole. People were lying all over the place’.” Eugene Black went through more than any of us could imagine. The Nazi-Anti Jewish Propaganda tactic of separation caused Eugene Black to lose his close friends, and family.

The Nazi’s goal was to eliminate all Jews. Jewish men, woman, and children suffered through severe discrimination. Many anti-Jewish people depicted Jews as demons and devils in their final form. The impact this made on the Jewish community was tremendous, many Jews were hated and publicly shamed for being with “pure” Germans. Many Germans who were in a relationship with Jews were humiliated, and were treated like a traitor.
