Description

An analysis of FDR's response to the Holocaust: what did he know, when did he know it, what did he do, what didn't he do, and what could he have done? Additionally, the response of the Jewish community is also analyzed - including FDR's faithful supporters and Jewish opposition groups. This is a discussion of one of the most controversial issues of the 20th century. (Sponsored by Becky and Avi Katz, L'ilui nishmat Yona ben R. Aryeh Leib)
