Propaganda Write down this definition Propaganda is a set of messages aimed at influencing the opinions or behaviors of large numbers of people. Propaganda often presents facts selectively to encourage a particular view, or gives loaded messages in order to produce an emotional rather than rational response to the information presented.
1936 Berlin Olympics A Nazi Rally http://tw.youtube.com/watch?v=jIF6hOy5LNg http://tw.youtube.com/watch?v=XXIe5GbLSUs TASK Give reasons why Hitler may not have awarded Jesse Owens his gold medals.
Study the following Propaganda posters after each one write down whether it relates to : • Censorship • Avti-Semitism • Youth and Education • Support for the war • The Economy • Hitler’s Foreign Policy
This poster probably comes from the mid-1930's. The caption: "Hitler is building. Help him. Buy German goods."
This poster promoted education. The caption: "Adolf Hitler's youth attends community schools.“ Probably the mid-1930's. Courtesy of Dr. Robert D. Brooks.
This 1938 poster was issued shortly after the Anschluss with Austria. The caption: "One People, One Reich, One Führer."
The text of this 1940 poster reads: "Youth Serves the Führer. All 10-year-olds into the Hitler Youth." Membership in the Hitler Youth had become mandatory in 1936.
This 1940 poster advertises the worst of the Nazi anti-Semitic films, "The Eternal Jew."
This poster advertises a county rally of the Nazi Party from 1941 (a miniature version of the Nuremberg rally). A woman plows the field while her husband fights on the front.
This looks to be a late-war recruiting poster for the SS, a time at which the Nazis were recruiting younger and younger soldiers. The caption doesn't translate directly, but means: "Enlist now!" A literal translation would be: "Especially you!"
This poster from fall 1943 also encourages silence. The caption: "Shame on you, chatterer! The enemy is listening. Silence is your duty." This was probably in colour, but the source I found it in was black and white.
Before World War II began, Germans were allowed to listen to foreign radio broadcasts. This was banned once the war began, and by the end of the war people were executed for listing to enemy radio stations. In this poster, a Marxist looking chap broadcasts from London, Moscow, and other enemy states, while a German listens in the darkness, trying to conceal his crime.
