During the interwar period of the twentieth century, Jewish immigrants and American born Jews faced increasing ant-Semitism and discrimination. The external pressure of anti-Semitism and discrimination led to many Jews facing internal anxieties and conflicts about being Jewish and fitting into American society. Assimilation during this period meant fitting into the white gentile majority’s standard of appearance, mannerisms, and middle class ideals. Common stereotypical images from the time depict Jews with large noses and curly hair, women were often portrayed as dominant over their Jewish husbands, and Jews were often seen as manipulative, controlling, and money grubbing. Jews’ limited social acceptance came on by completely abandoning

Lastly, both movies demonstrate the second central theme religion and exile as means to control the public. For example, Second Reza Shah wanted to remove religion and place his traditional Persian heritage as founding rule of Iranian people. Removal of religion was mandatory for Second Reza to keep his absolute power within Iran. For example, when Second Reza Shah’s father was in power, he had religious clergy that guided him on action what were needed to be done within the state. When Reza Shah was exiled and his son Mohammad Reza Shah was appointed as the new ruler of Iran by CIA. For this reason, Ayatollah Khomeini used this as his arc to get more people together.

I wonder what would’ve happened if the jews weren't exiled. Things started getting worse for the jews when nazis came into power in 1933. They already had a bad reputation sol when someone as powerful as hitler comes in it’s bound to get worse. With everything you heard about jews you wouldn't wanna look or touch one. But if for some reason you see one you would know that all of it isn’t true. To the hook nose, giant ears, flat feet, bad dressing, all of that isn’t true. Those are all stereotypes that people heard, and if you look at some kids you can really tell they’re just like us ordinary people.

To become an effective counselor to Jewish Americans or any race or diverse population is to be aware of one’s thoughts and opinions concerning racism and racial advantage, as well increase knowledge of culture’s different from oneself (Hays & Erford, 2014). Jewish Americans are referred to those Caucasian individuals who have immigrated to the United States from another country, such as Eastern Europe (Hays and Erford, 2014). In this paper, I will identify and provide a description of the Jewish population and how they differ from myself in a variety of ways. Additionally, I will provide a reflection of my immersion into the Jewish culture via my observations and highlight what I have learned

They were being hunted and chased by evil men all across Europe. They were looking for someplace to hide, to rest. These were the Jews of the early 1940's, chased by Hitler's Nazi soldiers. It was the Jewish Underground started by loving, caring, and daring Christians, who reached out and took in those in desperate need.

Every religious group has suffered a time when their religion was not considered to be popular or right. Out of all of these religious groups that have suffered, no one group has suffered so much as that of the Jewish religion. They have been exiled from almost every country that they have ever inhabited, beginning with Israel, and leading all the was up to Germany, France, Spain, England, and Russia. Not only have they been exiled but also they have suffered through torture, punishment, and murder. Thus, because of the history of the religion, the Jewish people have become a very resilient people. They have survived thousands of years carrying their religion with them from one country to

Since the start of the Nazi occupation in Europe, Jewish communities and individuals were struggling with survival, and fought for their existence. Many Jews tried to evade or overcome the degrading Nazi decrees, that stripped them of civil and human rights, triggered isolation and denied them a livelihood. The Nazis simply wanted to create a condition in which no human being, particularly Jewish, can live or even exist. For a long time, the Jews’ view on the sanctity of life, a duty to protect one’s life, encouraged them to endure the period of intense pain and suffering. From past experience, the Jews thought that the terrible events of the Nazis would pass, the same as the pogroms. Over a period of centuries, from the Crusades to the

The concentration camp was a place where they took jewish people and had them killed or beaten up because they were jews. In April 1940, the first commandant was a man named Rudolph Hoss for Auschwitz. Auschwitz-Birkenau was a general term for the network of Nazi concentration and Labor camps. The camp was mostly described by people as “The Death Camp” because it was basically a camp for killing jewish people( Auschwitz 1).

As King Solomon once said, “a righteous man falls down seven times and gets up.” This quote applies to the communal autonomy that the Jews followed in order to achieve social order and political status within foreign lands. Once the Jewish Diaspora began in 500 BCE, this is when the Jews officially became a communal minority group. It is also referred to as the dispersing of Jews from Israel to foreign lands where they created autonomy and social tolerance. During this time, the Jews were viewed as economic advisors who generated wealth for the non-Jewish leaders (Glick,162). Therefore, non-Jewish leaders in foreign lands, such as Spain, adapted social order with the Jews. This enabled them to partake in financial affairs that strengthened their economic experience within foreign societies. Soon after, the Jews received political privileges and protections through the creation of the Pact of Umar (637 A.D.) and the Charter of Speyer (1084 A.D.). Shortly after, political privileges and protections were taken away from the Jews during the reign of several non-Jewish leaders, such as King Ferdinand (1492 A.D.) and King Louis IX (1226 A.D.). Throughout pre-modern Jewish history the Jews lacked religious tolerance, but their economic abilities motivated non-Jewish leaders to grant them political privileges. This allowed them to strengthen their autonomy and build upon their political sovereignty. However, religious motivation led non-Jewish leaders to deny them political
