The perception of Africans as subhuman "lacking any kind of civilization, history, or meaningful religion" and the resulting justification for the violence against them is what author Elizabeth R. Baer refers to as the "genocidal gaze" an attitude that was later perpetuated by the Nazis. In The Genocidal Gaze: From German Southwest Africa to the Third Reich, Baer uses the metaphor of the gaze to trace linkages between the genocide of the Herero and Nama and that of the victims of the Holocaust. Significantly, Baer also considers the African gaze of resistance returned by the indigenous people and their leaders upon the German imperialists. 606 $aGenocide in literature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aGenocide$zNamibia 606 $aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in literature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aPostcolonialism in literature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aHerero (African people)$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00955427 606 $aNama (African people)$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01032316 607 $aGermany$xColonies$zAfrica 607 $aNamibia$2fast 610 0$aGenocide 610 0$aHistory 610 0$aGerman Studies 610 0$aJewish Studies 610 0$aHerero people 610 0$aNama people 610 0$aMorenga (film) 615 0$aGenocide in literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aGenocide 615 0$aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945), in literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aPostcolonialism in literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 7$aHerero (African people) 615 7$aNama (African people) 676 $a809.93358 700 $aBaer$b Elizabeth Roberts$0972671 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910476845803321 996 $aThe genocidal gaze$92212601 997 $aUNINA
