Description
The Halbjuden of Hitler's Germany were half Christian and half-Jewish but like the rest of the Mischlinge were far too Jewish in the eyes of the Nazis. Thus, while they were allowed for a time to coexist with the rest of German society, they were granted only the most marginal or menial jobs, restricted from marrying Aryans and sent eventually to forced-labor and concentration camps.Demonstrates the lengths to which the Nazis were willing to go to eradicate Jewish blood
