Antisemitism

Movies
A short documentary movie. The movie talks about antisemitism. What is antisemitism and what role did it play in Nazi Germany? How can we teach and explain to students the oncept of antisemitism? Antisemitism did not begin when Adolf Hitler came to power in January 1933. Antisemitism had long been entrenched in Germany and other European countries, and Jews for many centuries had been victims of widespread hatred and suspicion. The movie presents the different forms antisemitism has taken over the centuries and the innovations brought to antisemitism by the Nazis in order to better explain the historical context of the rise of racial antisemitic ideology.
