As head of Nazi propaganda efforts, Joseph Goebbels crafted many of the myths and rituals that spread anti-Semitism and demanded devotion to the Führer in Germany. He orchestrated the 1933 burning of “un-German” books in Berlin and used motion pictures to spread propaganda. His work maintained Nazi support throughout World War II.
