Discussion question for attendance and points for asynchronous Wednesday, December 2, 2020:
How does the common placard "Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil" relate/apply to the Jews of Sighet when dealing with living under the threat of the Nazis up until they arrived at Auschwitz?

Respuesta :

Answer:

This poster can be related to the view and the position of the Nazi Germans in relation to the Jews.

Explanation:

For Nazi Germany, Jews represented the evil of humanity and for that reason, it was necessary to get rid of them once and for all.

The way to get rid of evil, therefore, was not to see evil, not to hear evil, nor to speak evil. For this reason, the position of Nazi Germany was to keep Jews out of social life as much as possible, preventing them from having access to German society and then completely exterminating them in Auschwitz, preventing them from being seen, heard and spoken.
