German Jews felt at home in Germany before 1933. When Hitler was appointed chancellor on January 30, 1933, a rapid process of exclusion of the Jews began. Their immediate reactions range from attempts at cooperation with the Nazis or resisting them on various levels, while others simply left Germany altogether. This lecture explores the range of German-Jewish responses and attitudes in the immediate aftermath of the Nazi regime.
