Sewing the yellow star identifying a Jew onto a jacket, German-occupied Paris, 1942.

Sewing the yellow star identifying a Jew onto a jacket, German-occupied Paris, 1942. Life for French Jews became increasingly oppressive under Nazi occupation. Collaborators in both the occupied part of the country and the area controlled by the Vichy regime co-operated enthusiastically in the persecution. The Jewish population were compelled to wear the yellow star on their clothing from 1941. In 1942-1944 some 76,000 Jews were deported to concentration camps. Only 2500 survived.
