hitler was not yet ready, but mussolini was. mussolini had to be.rowing restless, fascism hadn't produced the heaven on earth that he had promised them. so he pulled the old trick of launching a foreign war to divert attention from troubles at home. so mussolini beat his chest like tarzan and looked around for a worthy foe. he found one, ethiopia. good country for the beginning of a glorious empire. its army had no machine guns. its army had no tanks. its army did have an air force, exactly one old airplane. one airplane against a nation which had developed a new theory of total air war. and the blitz, which would wipe out cities, destroy civilians, man, woman and child. in october of 1935, following the japanese example, an incident was provoked at the little settlement of wal wal near the border of ethiopia and italian somaliland. italy's honor had been violated. refusing any arbitration, mussolini moved the whole might of his army through the suez canal to overrun the undefended country. ethiopia's emperor of people before the league of nations.

and there was a quote that mussolini used that i think really is so -- really visual, which is that youan pluck a chicken one feather at a time, and it isn't noticed. so it's these steps that i'm pointing out. >> what do you hope the book accomplishes? >> well, first of all, i do think it's important to have this historical approach to it. and by the way, christiane, this comes out of my own experience. i was born two years before world war ii, and when the nazis took over the country i was born in, we moved to england. and were there all through the blitz. we came back to czechoslovakia, hoping to live in a free country, and then it was taken over by the communists. so i know what fascism is all about. and how it can really destroy people. there's a saying now, which is see something, say something. and i've added to it, do something. and my to-do list is basically some of the things i mentioned, which is to really understand the importance of a free press, to demand that there be a president that is not above the law. to encourage people to be participants in the system, to run for of

easiest way to not be a hypocrite is to have no ideals at all and nobody ever accused hitler or mussolini of being a hypocrite. they were infinitely cruel but theywork hypocrites , they told us what they wanted to do. for liberal hypocrisy is certainly a vice and sin but it's one that's kind of built in to the society where people have some values or ideals and it should be the organizing principle of your politics as maddening and infuriating as it is. it certainly as a member of congress i see how maddening and infuriating it is to me to see people proclaim the importance of value family values in support the separation of parents from their children or look the other way when one of their colleagues is having an affair or trying to get an abortion or whatever. it's infuriating but ultimately it's not a very good guide to moral and political judgment. cruelty and reducing the amount of cruelty and painand suffering is a much better guide . so anyway i would love to, i could spend all day talking about that book but that's a masterful book that i think everybody should check out who's in

born in 59, i call myself a war baby, because i can distinctly remember the sounds of hitler and mussolini on the bbc as we turned on the radio and listened on the sunday night news. subsequently, watching this happening to my family and have been torpedoed. as i walked into my high school , we now have the korean war. the korean war was a war that was forgotten. people did it and came home. they believes they were for the most part, and we try to forget it. but my age group had gone past the point of being draftees, you are going to get chosen. i went to the university of new hampshire. there are started to get involved with spaulding, peter spaulding, and he was the republican party. the university campus had two rules where democrats met and where republicans met. sometimes, they met on the same night, and sometimes we would go downstairs, and sometimes we would drive to adobo where we could go dime. to me this was a fun thing. i grew up in a family that was very political and had run for offices and other countries and states. it was almost like a boxing match, that you get in the ring

on sunday and that quote is many enemies much honor and that's this quote happened to be on mussolini's one hundred thirty fifth birthday that same day he also blamed migrants for a third of all crimes committed in the country so keep that all in mind making matters worse a few hours later after that sweet there was a national athlete named daisy who was hits and injured by an egg thrown from a car in the northern city of turin opposition politicians believe that this was yet another racially motivated attack. are you crazy ok. you know i believe that the chaos and confusion that we see in parliament is the same chaos and confusion we see in the people therefore if we say the politicians are representing the people they represent them perfectly they're insulting each other and the people do the same but unfortunately if the politicians you can have the power to influence people with social media and look television continue to criticize you blame a minority for every problem the people will start thinking that they are right and that this is true and that is the minorities fault so in t

to doe feet hitler, mussolini, japanese and fascism around the world. this is what we'll be talking about this week. i want to remind you a couple of the big questions that we have been tracing over the last several weeks. not the least of which is -- who and what is considered mexican-american or american more generally. who is afforded first-class citizenship in american society? this changes with these million-plus migrants. and their offspring. it is a dramatic moment and shift in mexican-american history that we will be talking about this week, during the 1940s and world war ii, in part because if nothing else, this moment reminds us that there are contradictions, fissures, and deep inequities when it comes to who and what is considered a full member of american society. one of the main arguments and points i want you to take away from today and wednesday, is that world war ii highlights these contradictions of american society and democracy in dramatic, fundamental, powerful ways. not least because we have literally tens of thousands of mexican am

the double v campaign was victory abroad against hitler, mussolini, and fascism, but also victory at home for first class membership in american society. you can't win abroad without also winning at home. that you couldn't fight for american democracy overseas without fighting for equal citizenship on the home front. this became a fundamental and core principle for many mexican-american, african-american, and other folks. there were some successes. in civil rights during the war. fra franklin delano roosevelt, president during the initial years of world war ii signed an executive order that banned discrimination in the workplace and called for fair employment practices and fair housing opportunities. there were also movements against and resistance to civil rights progress. remember, we have mexicans becoming a larger portion of american urban populations. we have african-americans migrating internally to big cities across the country. and eventually, by the time we get to the end of the war, and even during the war, as it goes on, year by year, we have black and brown veterans retur
