On May 10, 1933, Nazi-dominated student groups started carrying out the public burning of books they claimed were “un-German.” The books targeted for burning were those viewed as being subversive or as representing ideologies that were opposed to Nazism and did not comply with being a German.
On that day, University students brought about 25,000 books to the burning. Those were the books of all Jewish authors, socialists, and anyone who did not support the Nazis ideology.
Works by mainstream authors such as Ernest Hemingway, Jack London and HG Wells were also considered fit for the flames.
Even the poems of German poet Heinrich Heine were burned, who 110 years earlier wrote:
“where they burn books, they will ultimately burn people as well.”
You can see this now in this present-day protest, there are those who are attempting to control the oppositions speech, culture and other aspect of their lives.
Free speeches mean you have the right to speak only. When you block publicly accessible campus, lawns, and libraries, or commit hate crimes which call for the extermination of others that don’t support your fascist beliefs, it’s no longer Free Speech. It's nothing more than present day Nazism and a way of stifling any dissenting views, race or culture.
