Describe how Jews were badly discriminated against in Germany from 1933-39

Jewish people in Germany were badly hated in 1933 to 1939, this hatred dated all the way back to Jesus being killed by Jews. This was when the king ordered the death of Jesus by nailing him to a crucifix, it was because of this event taking place that Hitler and the nazi's hated Jewish people so much. Hitler made his hatred for Jewish people very clear by the way he treated them, this went from stopping them spreading their views in 1933 to mass murder (genocide) in the later years.

Treatment of Jews grew worse and worse over the years leading up to the war, the main changes happened 1933-1939 due to the Nazi's coming to power and Hitler being in control. In 1933 it began discrimination became clear and the April Boycott happened, this was where the SA stood outside Jewish shops and businesses to stop people getting in, they drew Jude (another word for Jew) on the windows or/and the star of David to tell people it was a Jewish shop or business and people who tried to gain entry where beaten by the SA guards on the doors. The Nazi's did this to eventually making all Jewish people bankrupt and therefore they would leave Germany and make the country pure and Jew free.

Again this was done to force people of Jewish background out of Hitler's Germany.

However 1935 was more eventful, in this year the Nuremberg laws were introduced that increased Jewish discrimination. Law one stated that Jews were no longer recognised as German citizens but as Jews ...
