RISE OF THE NAZIS, SEASON 2
DICTATORS AT WAR
TUESDAYS, APRIL 12, 19, 26, 8 PM

See how Adolf Hitler and the Nazis rise to power. In 1930, Germany was a liberal democracy. Just four years later, democracy is dead, Germany’s leader is a dictator, and the government is in the hands of the Nazis. Facing defeat on the Eastern Front, resistance builds as Hitler pushes Germany to untold destruction. This is the story of why dictatorships fail and the hubris that nearly destroyed freedom, but ultimately destroyed itself.

THURSDAY, APRIL 28, 10 PM

In 1940, 86 exhausted Jewish European refugees were trapped on the SS Quanza in the port of Hampton Roads, Virginia. They were hoping to be allowed on American soil — where millions of others in distress had safely landed before them.
