Available for over a year

In this episode, Katie and Datshiane examine the Nazi antisemitic and racial persecution in Germany between 1933 and 1939. This includes a detailed look at significant events like the Nuremberg Laws and Kristallnacht, which marked key turning points in the escalation of Nazi antisemitic policies. Before listening, it’s important to acknowledge that we will be discussing the Holocaust, one of the darkest periods in human history. The topic involves deeply distressing themes, including the suffering of millions of innocent people. While it is crucial to learn about this period to understand the impact of hatred and intolerance, some of the content may be upsetting or difficult to hear. If at any point you feel overwhelmed, please take a break or speak to someone you trust. Remember, it’s okay to feel emotional about these events, and it’s essential to approach this subject with respect and care. As always, this episode will include helpful hints and tips for revision and exam questions. Be sure to have your pens, paper, or digital equivalents ready to take notes. Suitable for AQA, Edexcel, Eduqas and OCR.
