Propaganda Definition : ideas or statements that are often false or exaggerated and
that are spread in order to help a cause, a political leader, a government, etc.
• America: The person attacking the women in the picture is supposed to be a
Japanese person.
• Germany: The poster from Germany is supposed to be depicting a Jewish person, the
hands belong to Germans. The text on the poster reads, “The Jew, The cause of war.”
Laws
America
Executive Order 9066
“Instructions to All People of
Japanese Ancestry
All Japanese persons, alien and nonalien will be evacuated, from the
designated area… No Japanese
person will be permitted to enter or
leave the prescribed area …
evacuated persons should take with
them limited clothing and
belongings.”
Germany
Nuremburg Laws
“(1) A citizen of the Reich may be
only one who is of German or
kindred blood, and who, through his
behavior, shows that he is both
desirous and personally fit to serve
loyally the German people and the
Reich.
(2) Only the citizen of the Reich may
enjoy full political rights in
consonance with the provisions of
the laws.”
• America: The Order, printed on the left, was posted in Jewish neighborhood that
told people of Japanese ancestry, whether they were citizens or not, they had to
pack their things, sell their homes and businesses, take only what they can carry,
and move to an internment camp in the dessert.
• Germany: The Law on the right from Germany took all rights away from Jewish
people. It basically says that you are no longer a citizen if you are Jewish as Jewish
people were not considered German.
