February 24, 1920
Nazi Party Platform
On February 24, 1920, Hitler presents a 25-point program (known as the Nazi Party platform) to a meeting in a German beer hall. The Nazi Party platform includes extreme expressions of antisemitism and German nationalism. Point 4 of the program, for example, states that “Only a member of the nation [Volksgenosse] may be a citizen of the State. Only someone of German blood, whatever their creed, may be a member of the nation. Accordingly, no Jew may be a member of the nation.”
The Nazi Party never alters its party platform, though they are not always equally committed to all 25 points. After the Nazis come to power in Germany, they put into practice a number of their demands, as outlined in the party platform.
