it worked in terms of defeating the third reich and what it stood for.hich then raises the question, why the cold war? was the cold war -- sorry, was the cold war inevitable? and churchill writes in january of 1945 his fear, his concern that the only bond of the victors is their common hate. and that was printed in the official history of a life of churchill. what's less well known is that actually he adds, we have to think of something better than this. in other words, the only thing that holds us together is the fact -- is the negative we're fighting, nazi germany. now you'll be in a couple of weeks talking about the conference and we will also in britain at the churchill archives. and it's a commonplace in some circles in the united states that yalto was the conference that just divided europe. but really the divided europe had was not the result of the yalto yalto conference. it had been developed by the strategy that the allies adopted. the fact that there was no second front in '42 or '43 meant that if the red army defeated them, it was inevitable

emphasize the subtitle of the book are the origins to emphasize these were the early years of the reich and we know toward the end of the war later in the reign of terror, they did the unthinkable to murder 6 million jews far beyond anything that any would begin to imagine. so this is on the origin of the hierarchy in each of these places. >> we are getting the hook over here. trying to pull us offstage. but before we go so what is your process of writing? you are one of the biggest writers this nation ever seen and i'm willing to stand by it with these wonderful books are you collecting notes on a new card? to assemble and then organize? do you have an outline? tell us what you do because a lot of writers think how in the world can she talk about atmospheric environmental and then put that into a quotation of lebron james i don't care how rich you are. that is how relevant she is. if you watch the game tonight think about isabel wilkerson. so tell us about your process. >> don't forget the matrix. >> that's right.

years the united states of america or in north america before the united states of america the 3rd reich only lasted about 121314 years if anything robert e. lee is a more despicable dishonorable figure than the nazis and those comments those quotations allegedly from robert e. lee i'd like to know from what year they were taken was that were the comments after he was defeated on the battlefield not least because of the sacrifice and bravery of black soldiers or what these comments render while he was defending a slave owning regime just to get your thoughts on the big picture here that clearly there's a problem is even going through a racial inequality in the us but isn't this statue obsession really a sideshow the real issue is high poverty and car separation rates among african-americans they're not going to be addressed in this way just wasting time not at all a trip with a 1000 miles begins with once we're moving the steps and the steps a step towards redistributing the wealth in this country is just a step towards basically attacking this racial wealth bell that you just made refer

. >> we'll be reich back. . >>> with the first doses of covid-19 vaccine is on the way, we are getting ready for vaccination. riep right now we talk about money. >> the covid-19 vaccine is a priceless option that can end the pandemic. how much? >> $40. if you have health insurance, it is possible with covid-19 vaccine is free. the group that represents health insurance company says this. health insurance providers cover vaccines recommended by the cdc's acip. when acip recommends a vaccine, it will be covered or free. acip is the federal committee that green lights vaccines. notice the insurance statement says "most plans," not "all plan." that's your trigger to be calling for information. while i have a rep on the line, i will ask about copays and deductibles to understand my financial obligation. if you don't have health insurance, don't worry too much. contact your local health department, see if they have a low or no cost plan available for you. if you work, contact your boss. the same way some companies offer free flu vaccines, it is possible that some workers will get free covid

but it was anybody who didn't support the reich and for whatever reason was deemed unworthy. communists, german, french, italian and if you opposed the regime you were probably going to end up in a concentration camp. americans end up in concentration camps, just political prisoners. anyone considered undesirable and not completely supportive of the third reich and its goals is probably going to end up in a prison camp somewhere. >> what could possibly be the advantage of prison guards taking bribes like that in nazi germany? what exactly would they bribe them with? >> food out of red cross packages largely. so there was -- >> very dangerous, wouldn't it? >> absolutely. >> human nature. >> yeah, so for the guards, i don't have a lot of information about what happened to them other than the best speculation is when they were arrested and they were tortured before their execution that's when they probably gave up george grimson. so just kind of in passing we know the scheme was uncovered and that they were punished for it. >> thank you. >> yes, sir.

hitler and the third reich leadership knew from the very beginning that the only possible way to send millions of soldiers to the eastern front was to replace them with millions of more forced enslaved laborers from the east. so that was the first group, and they begin arriving in 1940 1941 and continued to arrive through the end of the war. the second stream that made up the last million came in 1944- 1944-1945 from latvia, lithuania, estonia, and parts of ukraine. and these were men, women and their children. the men and women who had in one way or another collaborated with the nazi authorities. sometimes that collaboration meant simply working in a post-office that was overseen by a nazi official. in other cases it meant serving in the auxiliary police, rounding up jews pick . in some cases it meant joining the ss division. when he became clear that the red army was on its march and would soon arrive in the baltic states, and in the ukraine, thousands upon thousands of citizens who had collaborated in some way, and citizens who could not abide the thought of living under soviet dom

were in dialogue with any consulting with american eugenicists in the 1930s leading up to the third reich . that actually the nazis admired the 1924 immigration law that restricted immigration to the united states on the basis of eugenicists beliefs. that american eugenicists that were writing the bestsellers in germany, very popular among the nazis . this was stunning to me and of course we know the nazis had no one to keep them how to hate, they did not need anyone to teach them but they sent researchers and study researchers to the united states and study the jim crow laws . laws against miscegenation, anti-miscegenation laws prohibiting marriage across racial lines. a study desegregation laws that again. he and pollution keeping african-americans separate from apart from and below white americans in the south. a study these laws. they studied the american definition of race and american definition that in many states that a single drop of blood made a person black. they look at these things and examined these laws and debated these laws. they were constructed what ultimately would bec

observation, germany, of course, is done an awful lot to engage its students in the monstrous history of the reich. we ran into students on a recent trip in the holocaust section of the imperial war museum. as much as they've been educated in this, they were absolutely stunned by the photography and recreating of the auschwitz killing camp and things like that. you pointed out something i have found myself in doing research in germany that despite the museums and the films and everything else, when you talk to individual germans they don't want to take it down to the family level. do you find that? >> yeah, we were discussing this because i found that very interesting in doing my research that i would talk with people of my generation and below about, you know, who had very good knowledge and understanding of what germany had done, of all of the facts of world war ii and the holocaust, and accepted the and accepted the burden of responsibility that comes with that as a nation. but i would say what did your opa do in the war, and they would say same, he was in the -- and then was he a member of the
