Interracial Friendships Were Banned

While Nazis were most known for hating the Jewish population, they were also not fond of any other religions or races. This poster depicts a German girl befriending a Black girl, and it looks like a pretty nice picture. However, the caption states that this type of friendship causes a loss in racial pride. The German’s would often use a juxtaposition technique that portrayed one ideal in the image and then a completely different message in the written word. This practice is common in propaganda as it elicits an emotional response visually and then explains why that response is dangerous.
