Mein Kampf is a book by Adolf Hitler. It was published in two parts in 1925 and 1926, before Hitler became dictator of Germany, and became a “bible” for the Nazis. The title is German for My Struggle. In the book, Hitler wrote that Germans were superior because of their “racial purity.” Therefore, they had the “moral right” to conquer and displace the “lesser” races of Eastern Europe and Russia. He wrote that the Jews were the main threat to “racial purity.” The ideas in Mein Kampf formed the basis of German policies that helped lead to World War II (1939-1945) and the systematic murder of millions of Jews and other Europeans.
