It is a very widely spread myth that Emmy Noether lost her position in Göttingen because she was Jewish. In fact she like several of her colleagues both in the maths department and in the philosophy department lost their positions because they were intellectual Marxists. Both the Germans and the Americans with their "Reds under the bed" paranoia try to hide this fact.
