On 7 June 1942 Jews were required to wear the Yellow Star. The Vichy government rejected the Star.¹⁶⁰ This provoked the first open and extensive resistance by French people against the anti-Jewish persecution.¹⁶¹ Many Jews simply didn’t wear it and a number of non-Jews did wear it or something like it. On the streets of Paris were dozens of non-Jews ‘wearing six pointed stars.’¹⁶² They even put the Yellow Star on dogs. 30 non-Jews were arrested and interned at Drancy and forced to wear a yellow badge inscribed with ‘Jew-lover.’ They were released on 1 September.¹⁶³
