“Those Terrible 18 Months”

  • Summary

  • While activists raised public awareness of the plight of European Jews, American policymakers also advocated for the United States to do more for those fleeing from Nazi terror. Secretary of the Treasury, Henry Morgenthau, Jr., changed America's refugee policy with the assistance of his fellow bureaucrats and created opportunities for Jews to resettle in the United States.

    Stephanie Hinnershitz, PhD, fellow with The National WWII Museum’s Jenny Craig Institute for the Study of War and Democracy (JCISWD), discusses those eighteen months of plight with Mike Bell, PhD, Executive Director for the JCISWD.
