During a time in history, many people have suffered because of hatred and genocide. An example of this is when the African Americans were forced into slavery and killed when they did not work. The events in these acts were because of the silent majority . People were too afraid to speak their minds and stand up for themselves . This event was similar to slavery with the Native Americans when they were held against their will when the white men was taking over. The holocaust with the jews is an example of hatred and genocide .

The nuremberg laws were anti semitic laws in nazi germany. They were introduced on september 1935 by the reienists at the annual nuremberg rally of the nazi party. The two laws were the law for the protection of german blood and the german honor, which forbid marriages and extramarital intercourse between jews and germans. The nuremberg laws had a crimping economic and social impact on the jewish community. Persons convicted of violating the marriage laws were imprisoned.

Similar legislation soon deprived jewish members of other professions of there right to practise.
