Details:
What did Americans know about the dangers of Nazism, and when did they know it? Explore these questions and more as historian Daniel Greene examines the U.S. public's response to Nazism. He will look at domestic conditions — including economic depression, isolationism and antisemitism — that shaped Americans' reactions to atrocities abroad, and why rescuing Europe’s Jews never became a priority for the government or most Americans.
This program is part of the "Americans and the Holocaust" exhibit series. Find more information at thelibrary.org/aath.
The event takes place in the Library Center Hatch Auditorium.
