Two months back I gave a paper at Texas A & M University’s conference on symbolic violence. The paper ended up having so many images that I can’t think of a good place to publish it, so for the time being I am making it available here.
It looks at the range of Nazi anti-Semitism, examining how Nazi violence against Jews was presented as justified self-defense, whereas alleged Jewish violence against Germany was portrayed as part of the Jewish conspiracy to conquer the world.

New “Wochenspruch der NSDAP” Quotation Posters
I have added several dozen new translations to the Wochenspruch der NSDAP page. These were weekly posters with inspiring quotations. Most are from Gau Westfalen-Süd, but from a few other areas as well.
Several particularly surprise me. I had thought that the individual Gaue ceased issuing them after mid-1940. Nearly all did. However, Gau Sachsen continued to issue its own into 1941. Should anyone know more about this, please let me know.
