1933 Within only a few weeks of coming to power, Hitler's campaign announced new legislation set to exclude Jews from the life of Germany. Laws were passed banning Jews from working in professional capacities; schools were established exclusively for Jewish children and quotas limited their entry into Universities. They could neither join the army nor participate in the artistic life of the country. On the 10th May, 1933, Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi Propaganda minister, organised a public burning of all non-German literature. Any book written by a Jew, by those seen to be opponents to the Nazi ideology, were consigned to the flames. Whilst this legal process developed, the SS and SA were on the streets, persuading the German public not to shop at Jewish establishments. 1935 This slow process increased in tempo in 1935. Following a gigantic rally of the Nazi Party in Nuremberg, laws were passed which removed the right of Jews to be citizens of Germany. They had effectively become non-people. 1938 Jewish shops were attacked, destroyed and burnt down and Jews were beaten and murdered. Ninety Jews were killed and thousands put into concentration camps. Also the Jews were made to pay for the damagae which had been caused to their houses and shops. The night, November 9/10 November 1938, became known as Kristallnacht - the night of the shattered glass.
