America considers themselves a ânation of immigrantsâ but as the catastrophe of the Holocaust unfolded in Europe, the United States proved unwilling to open its doors to more than a fraction of the hundreds of thousands of desperate people seeking refuge. Through riveting firsthand testimony of witnesses and survivors, who as children endured persecution, violence and flight as their families tried to escape Hitler, this series delves deeply into the tragic human consequences of public indifference, bureaucratic red tape and restrictive quota laws in America. Did the nation fail to live up to its ideals? This is a history to be reckoned with. 521 $a Rating: TV-14. 541 $d 20230304. 546 $a English, Spanish audio; English and Spanish subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing. 650 $a Documentary television programs. 650 7 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $x Foreign public opinion, American. 650 7 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $x Influence. 650 7 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $x Historiography. 650 7 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Press coverage $z United States. 650 7 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Public opinion. 650 4 $a National socialism in popular culture $z United States. 650 7 $a Mass media $x Political aspects $z United States. 700 $a Burns, Ken, $d 1953-, $e director. 700 $a Botstein, Sarah, $d 1972-, $e director. 700 $a Novick, Lynn, $e director. 700 $a Coyote, Peter, $d 1941-, $e narrator. 700 $a Arkin, Adam, $d 1956- 700 $a Davis, Hope, $d 1964- 700 $a Giamatti, Paul, $d 1967- 700 $a Gilliatt, Olivia. 700 $a Gould, Elliott, $d 1938- 700 $a Guyer, Murphy, $d 1952- 700 $a Herzog, Werner, $d 1942- 700 $a Lucas, Josh, $d 1971- 700 $a Morton, Joe, $d 1947- 700 $a McCormick, Carolyn, $d 1959- 700 $a Neeson, Liam, $d 1952- 700 $a Rhys, Matthew, $d 1974- 700 $a Streep, Meryl, $d 1949- 700 $a Whitford, Bradley, $d 1959- 700 $a Zengel, Helena, $d 2008- 941 $a 1 952 $l WHPE115 $d 20230922010745.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=61A76090590D11EEB1F723F94AECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
