Anger & Humiliation | Voices in the Dark


Response to readings:


ANGER AND HUMILIATION


Most unfair rules:


4. German blood as a requirement for German citizenship. No Jew can be a member of the nation.


I find this rule unfair because a lot of Jews have been living in Germany for ages and not letting them be part of the nation simply because of their religion is extremely unfair.


8. No further immigration of non-Germans. Any non-German who entered Germany after August 2, 1914, shall leave immediately.


I think this rule is unfair because it just shows racism. Many people would have jobs out of the country and so its unfair. This rule shows that the Nazi Party belief non-Germans were not good enough or as good as Germans.

Questions:


3. Land and territory (colonies) for our surplus population.


Does that mean to get more land?


5. Non-citizens can live in Germany only as foreigners, subject to the law of aliens.


What is the 'law of aliens'?

VOICES IN THE DARK


If I was on that train in the same situation, I would have kept quiet. I say that because if I spoke out, I know more people would be against me than with me. Even if there were people of my kind on my side, would they dare to help defend me? I would be really mad and upset inside, but on the other hand would still silent to keep myself from getting killed or tortured.
