Did you know one of the first things the Nazis did when they took control of the German government in 1933 was to begin banning books, music and other forms of media they felt hindered their mission of creating a more perfect Germany? The Nazis called this "degenerate art" and handed out strict punishments to anybody who attempted to access these illegal forms of media.
