The Jewish Question in Education
–
–
–
“The racial and Jewish Question is the central problem of the
National Socialist worldview. Solving this problem will ensure the
survival of National Socialism and thereby the survival of our
people for all time.
The enormous significance of the Jewish Question is recognized
today by nearly every member of the German people. This
knowledge cost our people a long period of misery.
To spare coming generations this misery, we want German teachers
to plant the knowledge of the Jew deep in the hearts of our youth
from their childhood on. No one among our people should or may
grow up without learning the true depravity and danger of the
Jew. “
In Secondary Schools

The new approach to education has the goal to lead our female
youth to motherhood, to womanhood. Mother and child, with all
their related questions, are now more the center of education.
Thank god, eugenics and a concern with healthy offspring has
also entered our schoolrooms.

It is easy to build the bridge from them to the Jewish Question.
The Nuremberg Laws also provide a starting point. They forbid
Jews to have female servants under 45 years of age. The forbid
marriage between Jews and Germans. They provide lengthy
prison terms for sexual relations between Jews and Germans,
even if it does not lead to motherhood.
