Wilhelm Kube, the Nazi president of the Province of Brandenburg, has opened at Chorin, Brandenburg, a National Socialist school named the Theodor Fritsch School, in memory of the notorious anti-Semitic writer who died last year.
“We have named this school in honor of a man who in his eighties still waged war against Jewry,” Kube said. “This school bears the name of an old anti-Semite in order to demonstrate that National Socialism was anti-Semitic and remains anti-Semitic. We undertake that the spirit that leads from Theodor Fritsch to Adolf Hitler will be predominant here.”
