The focal point of the broad­cast is the “trans-Atlantic Indus­tri­al and Finan­cial Axis” that has been instru­men­tal in devel­op­ing and sus­tain­ing fas­cism on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean through­out the course of the 20th Cen­tu­ry. Col­lat­ing infor­ma­tion pre­sent­ed in pre­vi­ous pro­grams, Mr. Emory devel­ops con­nect­ing links between the Amer­i­can financ­ing of Ger­man indus­try pri­or to and after World War II with events such as the mur­der of Nicole Simp­son and the fram­ing of O.J., the killing of Den­ver talk show host Alan Berg by the Nazi group The Order, the (prob­a­bly) delib­er­ate cre­ation and dis­sem­i­na­tion of AIDS, as well as the pro­found influ­ence of Amer­i­can eugen­ics think­ing and leg­is­la­tion on the devel­op­ment of the Nazi racial laws. (For dis­cus­sion of the Amer­i­can-Ger­man eugen­ics con­nec­tion, see Archive Pro­grams such as Euthana­sia in Con­tem­po­rary Amer­i­ca & Nazi Ger­many and The Seeds of Nurem­berg: Fas­cism Grows Again From the Seeds of The Old Har­vest. They are avail­able from Spit­fire, as are var­i­ous 30-minute seg­ments about top­ics such as the O.J. Simp­son case, the obscure but sig­nif­i­cant Nazi tract Ser­pen­t’s Walk, the devel­op­ment of AIDS and the right-to-die move­ment.)
