Explanation:

Question 2

Before 1933, many Afro - Germans in Germany came from German colonies (where Germans had colonial rule and people from those colonies might have come to Germany) or were children of mixed - race marriages (between Germans and people of African descent). Option A is incorrect as they were not mainly refugees from other European countries. Option C is wrong as there was no large - scale sending of them for education. Option D is incorrect because the Nazis came to power in 1933, so they couldn't have forced them to move before 1933.

The presence of French African soldiers in the Rhineland caused fear among many Germans mainly due to racist beliefs. Germans at that time had racist attitudes towards Black people, and the presence of Black soldiers triggered panic based on these racist ideas. Option A is not correct as the soldiers were not there to take political power. Option B is not a major reason for the fear. Option C is incorrect as the fear was not about another war starting but about the presence of Black soldiers due to racism.

The term "Rhineland Bastards" is a derogatory term. It suggests that mixed - race children were seen as inferior. During the Nazi era and in the context of racist ideologies, such children were targeted by racist policies. Option A is wrong as they were not treated as equals. Option B is incorrect as they were not respected. Option D is wrong as they were not protected by international law; in fact, they were targeted.

Answer:

B. They came from German colonies or were children of mixed marriages
