The U.S. and the Holocaust(2022)

A history to be reckoned with.

The U.S. and the Holocaust is a three-part documentary series that examines America's response to one of history's darkest chapters. Despite its identity as a nation of immigrants, the United States turned away hundreds of thousands of desperate refugees fleeing Nazi persecution. Through firsthand accounts from survivors and witnesses who endured violence and displacement as children, the series reveals how public indifference, bureaucratic obstacles, and strict immigration quotas sealed the fate of countless families. The documentary investigates whether America abandoned its founding principles when the stakes were highest, exploring the tragic human cost of restrictive policies during the Holocaust. It's an unflinching reckoning with a pivotal moment in American history.
