American Nazis, The German American Bund: Fascist Groups in Europe 1920s, 1930s [View all]



- American Nazis - The German American Bund. This video is about the history of the German American Bund headed by Fritz Kuhn, an American Nazi Party which spread across the US. The Bund was infamous for its giant rally held at Madison Square Garden in New York City, Feb. 20, 1939 on George Washington's birthday.

During the 1920s and 1930s and with the rise of Hitler, copycat fascist organizations grew up in Europe in Austria and other places. Homegrown ultranationalist groups also developed like the British Union of Fascists (BUF) in Britain under Sir Oswald Mosely.

Dr. Mark Felton is a well-known British historian, the author of 22 non-fiction books, including bestsellers 'Zero Night' and 'Castle of the Eagles.' Mark also appears regularly in television documentaries around the world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Fe...
