- Germans listen to Hitler on the radio, 1937. Joseph Goebbels was the head of Nazi Propaganda.

- Julius Streicher (12 Feb. 1885 – 16 Oct. 1946) was a member of the Nazi Party, the Gauleiter (regional leader) of Franconia and a member of the Reichstag, the national legislature.

He was the founder and publisher of the virulently antisemitic newspaper Der Stürmer, which became a central element of the Nazi propaganda machine. The publishing firm was financially very successful and made Streicher a multi-millionaire.

At the end of the war Streicher was convicted of crimes against humanity in the Nuremberg trials, and was executed. Streicher was the first member of the Nazi regime held accountable for inciting genocide by the Nuremberg Tribunal.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_Streicher



- Germans reading the Der Sturmer 'newspaper' displayed publically in Worms, 1933.
