Episode 104: America First - Part 4

Marshall, Blake, and Mike discuss the America First movement in the 1930s, including its relation to racial policies and lynchings. Marshall describes how World War I cast its long shadow over 1930s America and how new America First leaders and organizations arose to lead their followers in opposition to the New Deal. We also resume our narrative of the career of Charles Lindbergh, whose celebrity gave him a reputation for expertise in a wide variety of subjects and laid the foundation for his prominence in the America First movement.
