feature Classes visiting the Nuremberg exhibit will participate in A Student Mock Trial of Julius Streicher. In 1946 Streicher, the publisher of the virulently anti-Semitic newspaper Der Stürmer, was convicted of "crimes against humanity" for his role in inciting the persecution and murder of Jews through the dissemination of hate propaganda. Using primary source material as evidence, students will reenact Steicher's trial, learning about the Nuremberg tribunals' processes and contemporary significance. |
