In April 1942, the Nazis now made all Jews over six years old start wearing a big patch on their clothes. The patch was yellow and in the shape of a Jewish star. The Jewish star, or the Star of David, is a six-sided star made from two triangles. It is the most common symbol of the Jewish religion. It had to be worn on overcoats and jackets and dresses. It was sewn right over your heart, right where everyone would be sure to see it.

THE STAR OF DAVID

ACCORDING TO LEGEND, THE STAR OF DAVID WAS On THE SHIELD OF KING DAVID, A WISE AND HEROIC KING OF ISRAEL In ANCIENT TIMES.

HITLER DECIDED THAT ALL JEWISH PEOPLE HAD TO WEAR YELLOW CLOTH STARS THE SIZE OF A GROWN-UP’S HAND. HE DID THIS TO SINGLE THEM OUT. In THE MIDDLE OF THE PATCH WAS THE WORD JOOD, WHICH MEANT “JEW.” IT WAS WRITTEN In LETTERS THAT LOOKED LIKE HEBREW LETTERS. ALTHOUG IT WAS MEANT TO BE A BADGE OF SHAME, MANY JEWS WORE THEIR PATCH PROUDLY.
