For this purpose, publications containing hate speech towards Jews were started to be published. One of the most notable among these publications was the story book Poisonous Mushroom (Der Giftpilz), published by one of the leading politicians of NSDAP, Julius Streicher. Poisonous Mushroom tried to be used in building anti-Jewish perceptions, especially in schools in Germany. In the study, it was aimed to reveal the myths that Nazism ideology wanted to build in German society and explain what was targeted with the built myths through eight stories selected from Poisonous Mushroom. Written and visual codes in the stories determined for this purpose were examined semantically. Within the scope of the findings obtained, it was observed that "Jews economically exploit German society", "Jews work only for their own interests" and "Jews pose a threat to German society" anti-Jewish myths were constructed through the story book. By constructing hate speech towards Jews in German society through built myths, it was revealed that Jews were intended to be excluded from German society.

Is there a tangible sense of pride and institutional history? Do your co-workers appear energized and engaged? Is there a clear sense of purpose? If asked, can you easily produce the latest annual report? How about a list of current priorities and objectives? What about strategic goals? If your library has lost some of its drive and internal focus, Visual Management can help to realign staff with organizational mission and priorities. A visually dynamic workplace can eradicate information overload and replace it with a clear system of information exchange. Over time, it can re-engage employees, improve workflow, and stimulate innovation throughout the organization.
