Olympic Games Open in Berlin (1 agos 1936 año – 1 ene 0 año)

Descripción:

The Summer Olympic Games open in Berlin, attended by athletes and spectators from countries around the world.

The Olympic Games were a propaganda success for the Nazi government, as German officials made every effort to portray Germany as a respectable member of the international community. They removed anti-Jewish signs from public display and restrained anti-Jewish activities. In response to pressure from foreign Olympic delegations, Germany also included one part-Jew, the fencer Helene Mayer, on its Olympic team. Germany also lifted anti-homosexuality laws for foreign visitors for the duration of the games.
