The Rise of Hitler | Holocaust Education | USHMM*

Nov 29, 2022 | After Adolf Hitler's rise to power in Germany in 1933, the Nazi Party gradually restricted Jewish citizens’ rights and violence against Jews increased by 1938. What events led up to the mass murder of six million Jews? Can recognizing similar warning signs help prevent genocide today? One notable wave of violence across Germany, known as Kristallnacht, was organized by the Nazi regime. Additional anti-Jewish laws followed. Jews tried to emigrate to escape persecution, but many countries would not accept large numbers of refugees. Those who chose to help made a difference. For example, about 10,000 Jewish children were rescued under the Kindertransport program, which sent them abroad.
