Evaluating Nazi Propaganda

By: Jessica Rockhold
Midwest Center for Holocaust Education

 

Introduction

The Nazis utilized propaganda as a political tool from their inception.
Joseph Goebbels, Reich Propaganda Minster, developed bright,
simply-interpreted imagery to impact the opinions of the German
electorate prior to 1933, and then to sensitize them to the Nazi racial
message after 1933. This exercise helps students to evaluate that
propaganda for message and effectiveness.
