The U.S. beat Nazi Germany, but could leaders and citizens could have done more to help the persecuted? Ken Burns' 'The U.S. and the Holocaust' examines what the U.S. did and didn't do in a new six-hour, three-part series starting Sunday on PBS.
Documentary filmmaker Ken Burns made a website to help bridge the political divide in America by taking a look back at its shared history.But as many of the documentaries made by Ken Burns and his team at Florentine Films make clear, the devil lurks in the details.
Burns: The film certainly celebrates the many Americans who did the right thing: The people who welcomed refugees into their homes, the people who went to France and helped Jews escape. The forgers and bribers who worked tirelessly against the Nazi regime. Famed aviator Charles Lindbergh initially had great support as the head of an isolationist group called America First, and President Franklin Delano Roosevelt had his hands full trying to convince many lawmakers that the U.S. should help. This may be news to younger generations.
