1941: Adolf Hitler declares the imminent destruction of the Jewish race during a meeting with the highest-ranking officials of the Nazi party at the Reich Chancellery. The meeting marked a turning point in the Nazi regime's attitude toward the Jewish people, shifting from propaganda, intimidation and attacks to outright and planned extermination.
