There are four special laws that are important, which include:  N uremberg  Laws -  Adolf Hitler announced the Nuremberg Laws on September 15, 1935. Germany’s parliament (the  Reichstag ), then made up entirely of Nazi representatives, passed the laws. Antisemitism was of central importance to the Nazi Party, so Hitler had called parliament into a special session at the annual Nazi Party rally in Nuremberg, Germany. Reich Citizenship Law -  According to the Reich Citizenship Law and many clarifying decrees on its implementation, only people of “German or kindred blood” could be citizens of Germany. The law defined who was and was not a German, and who was and was not a Jew. The Nazis rejected the traditional view of Jews as members of a religious or cultural community.

The Industrial Revolution, which took place from the 18th to 19th centuries, was a period during which predominantly agrarian, rural societies in Europe and America became industrial and urban.  Prior to the Industrial Revolution, which began in Britain in the late 1700s, manufacturing was often done in people’s homes, using hand tools or basic machines. Industrialization marked a shift to powered, special-purpose machinery, factories and mass production.  The iron and textile industries, along with the development of the steam engine, played central roles in the Industrial Revolution, which also saw improved systems of transportation, communication and banking.  While industrialization brought about an increased volume and variety of manufactured goods and an improved standard of living for some, it also resulted in often grim employment and living conditions for the poor and working classes.

The Foundresses week activity was full of light and happiness. As a group, we took a tour of the school and visited special places on the campus that were and are significant to NDNU. I learned that the mission of Notre Dame de Namur is to welcome everyone into their community no matter who the person is or where they come from. Everyone here is respected and treated equally. I enjoyed the tour because the sisters really talked spiritually about their community and what they believed in. I got the chance to see Sister Dorthy and hear her words of wisdom.
