Image entitled "Ten Stages of Genocide" 1. Classification - people are divided into 'us' and 'them' (i.e., othering) 2. Symbolization - people are FORCED to identify themselves. (i.e., outing) 3. Discrimination: people begin to face systematic discrimination. 4. Dehumanization: people are equated with animals, vermin, or diseases. 5. Organization: The government creates specific groups (police/military) to enforce the policies. 6. Polarization: The government broadcasts propaganda to turn the populace against the group. 7. Preparation: Official action to remove/relocate people. 8. Persecution: Beginning of murders, theft of property, trial massacres. 9. Extermination: Wholesale *elimination* of the group. It is "extermination" and not murder because the people are *not* considered human. 10. The government denies that it has committed any crime.

The path is known and it is grim
This world's been there and it's back again
Know the stages so you are prepared
Because they count on your ignorance to keep you scared
