Nuremburg Laws

 

1. Provide two examples of ways in which the Nuremberg laws affected the rights of German Jews. 
   German Jews from Reich citizenship and prohibited them from marrying or having sexual relations with persons of “German or German related blood”.
               Jewish officers were expelled from the army and Jewish university students were not allowed to sit for doctoral exams.
   2. What other actions were taken that discriminated against Jews in Germany? (Remembering)
   Jewish people were disenfranchised (which means they had no right to vote) and could not hold public office. 
   Other regulations reinforced the message that Jews were outsiders in Germany.
   3. Why do you think that the Nazis passed these laws? (Understanding)
   They probably passed these laws because it made the Germans look strong and superior and the rules did not affect themselves. 
   4. If a New Zealand government passed a law that provided for different treatment of a named racial group in New Zealand, what do you think the reaction of most New Zealand people would be? Why do you think this might be the case? (Applying)
   I think that the majority of New Zealand wouldn't go along with this because New Zealand involves a lot of different cultures.
   5. Do you think these Nuremberg laws were racist? Explain your point of view. (Evaluating)I think that these laws were racist and wouldn't be accepted in modern society.
