Podcast Title: The UN, Society, and Antisemitism
Episode 305 (Part 2)
Host: Dr. Susanne Seperson
Guest: J.D. Solomon
Series: hmTv

Description:
In Part 2 of The UN, Society, and Antisemitism on hmTv, host Dr. Susanne Seperson continues her gripping conversation with author and historian J.D. Solomon, diving deeper into the rise of antisemitism in pre-World War II America and the powerful public figures who fueled it.

Together, they unpack the influence of Father Charles Coughlin, the infamous “radio priest” who broadcast antisemitic propaganda to tens of millions; Henry Ford, whose newspaper The Dearborn Independent spread The Protocols of the Elders of Zion across the nation; and Charles Lindbergh, whose isolationist speeches revealed a troubling admiration for Nazi Germany.

The discussion moves from history to proximity, exposing the existence of Camp Siegfried — a Nazi youth camp in Yaphank, Long Island — and the Silver Shirts, a homegrown fascist movement that mirrored Hitler’s Germany.

Dr. Seperson and Solomon then connect these historical threads to today’s landscape — from modern hate speech and Christian nationalism to the disturbing reemergence of antisemitism in American life.

This episode is both a history lesson and a wake-up call, reminding us that hate left unchecked doesn’t disappear — it evolves.
