Hitler's Racist Policies

Decent Essays
During the 1930s, Hitler was in power and built a racist state in Germany through the Nazi party by his impeccable speeches, segregation, and of course the propaganda he flooded the citizens with that slowly changed their opinions about the people around them. Through the documents there was evidence of such behavior that was shocking, but very well written that would make Hitler’s point very clear, and get others to write like him.
Hitler made many speeches when he was in power, such being when he “told the young men that the fate of Germany was in their hands” and if they were to fight against the communists, “they would see Jewish blood flow in streams” written in Time Magazine in the year 1933, by Dr. Alice Hamilton of Harvard University
