AI notes: The Nuremberg Rally held from September 1 to 3, 1933, officially called the “Rally of Victory,” was the first major Nazi Party rally after Hitler’s rise to power and marked the consolidation of the regime’s control over Germany. While it primarily celebrated the Nazis’ political triumph and the supposed rebirth of the nation, it also carried a strong undercurrent of anti-Jewish propaganda that foreshadowed the regime’s coming racial policies. In speeches and publications surrounding the event, Hitler and other Nazi leaders portrayed Jews as the source of Germany’s past suffering, economic hardship, and moral decay, urging the German people to embrace racial unity and reject so-called “foreign” and “corrupting” influences. Banners and slogans promoted Aryan superiority, and the atmosphere glorified obedience, nationalism, and racial purity. Though no formal anti-Jewish laws were yet in place, the 1933 rally helped embed open anti-Semitism into the Nazi state’s public identity, setting the stage for the harsher racial legislation and persecution that would follow.
