Nazi Town, USA

Peter Yost is a multiple multiple Emmy-nominated documentary filmmaker and the founder of Brooklyn-based Pangloss Films. He is the director of “Nazi Town, USA” which tells the largely unknown story of the Bund, which had scores of chapters in suburbs and big cities across the country and represented what many believe was a real threat of fascist subversion in the United States. The Bund held joint rallies with the Ku Klux Klan and ran dozens of summer camps for children centered around Nazi ideology and imagery. Its melding of patriotic values with virulent antisemitism raises thorny issues that we continue to wrestle with today.
