Download Roosevelt and the Holocaust: How FDR Saved the Jews and Brought Hope to a Nation AudioBook Free
There's a great argument among historians about Franklin Delano Roosevelt's activities during the Holocaust. Was FDR the hero that defeated the Germans, or did he transform a blind vision to the plight of the Jews so long as he possibly could? In Roosevelt and the Holocaust, Robert Beir analyzes specific activities and legislation to access the reality behind Roosevelt's role in the Holocaust. Beir has a unique perspective. He's a Jew who was simply raised during the extreme anti-Semitism of the fantastic Depression. Having observed the fruits of the brand new Deal firsthand, Beir became a Roosevelt scholar. It wasn't until later in life, when confronted by a student about Roosevelt's role in the Holocaust, that Beir began to analyze this issue intensely. Beir in the end concludes that Roosevelt acted not out of anti-Semitism, nor away of moral outrage in the plight of the Jews. Somewhat he acted in the manner he experienced was best to navigate the United States and the entire world through this tumultuous time.
