African Americans viewed the rise of fascism as a menace to American democracy. It also encouraged a renewed commitment to fighting racism at home and a deeper understanding of their own position in an America that perpetuated legalized racial discrimination, social and economic marginalization, and mob violence toward its own citizens. Dr. Millin’s lecture will explore the complex ways in which these perspectives intertwined and are illustrated by documents from the period.
