Joseph is 14 years old. He has lived in Warsaw, Poland, his whole life. Now that it is 1939 and the Nazis have taken over, Joseph is told that he must always identify himself as a Jew to protect other citizens. How is Joseph to do this? He must sew a yellow Star of David on his clothing.

He must shout ‘Jew’ wherever he goes in town.

He must wear a white armband with a blue Star of David.

He must wear a blue fringe at the bottom of his shirt.
