Americans consider themselves a "nation of immigrants," but as the catastrophe of the Holocaust unfolded in Europe, the United States proved unwilling to open its doors to more than a fraction of the hundreds of thousands of desperate people seeking refuge. Through riveting firsthand testimony of witnesses and survivors who as children endured persecution, violence and flight as their families tried to escape Hitler, this series delves deeply into the tragic human consequences of public indifference, bureaucratic red tape and restrictive quota laws in America. Did the nation fail to live up to its ideals? This is a history to be reckoned with.E.Closed-captioned for the hearing impaired.Subtitled for the deaf and hard-of-hearing (SDH).DVD ; wide screen presentation ; 5.1 surround sound, 2.0 stereophonic.

The American Revolution [videorecording] / by Botstein, Sarah,1972-television director,television producer.; Branagh, Kenneth,voice actor.; Brolin, Josh,voice actor.; Burns, Ken,1953-television director,television producer.; Coyote, Peter,narrator.; Schmidt, David,1956-television director,television producer.; Ward, Geoffrey C.,screenwriter.; Public Broadcasting Service (U.S.),production company,broadcaster.; PBS Distribution (Firm),distributor.;
Narrated by Peter Coyote ; Voice actors: Josh Brolin, Kenneth Branagh, Claire Danes, Hugh Dancy, Liev Schreiber, Tobias Menzies, Matthew Rhys, Tom Hanks, Adam Arkin, Damian Lewis, Alden Ehrenreich, Paul Giamatti, Maya Hawke, Laura Linney, Josh Charles, Craig Ferguson, Edward Norton, Jon Proudstar, Joe Keery.Originally produced as a documentary television program in 2025.The American Revolution was at once a war for independence, a war of conquest, a civil war, and a world war, fought by neighbors on American farms and between global powers an ocean or more away. It impacted millions from Vermont's Green Mountains to the swamps of South Carolina, from Indian Country to the Iberian Peninsula. In defeating the British Empire and giving birth to a new nation, the American Revolution turned the world upside-down. Thirteen colonies on the Atlantic Coast united in rebellion, won their independence, and established a republic that still endures.The American Revolution, our six-part, twelve-hour series on America's founding struggle, will present the story of the men and women of the Revolutionary generation, their humanity in victory and defeat, and the crisis that they lived through. By weaving together accounts of American political leaders and their British counterparts with the perspectives of the so-called ordinary people who waged and witnessed war, The American Revolution will be an expansive, evenhanded look at the virtues and the contradictions in the fight for independence and the birth of the United States.E.Described video for the blind and visually impairedClosed-captioned for the hearing impairedSubtitled for the deaf and hard-of-hearing (SDH).DVD ; wide screen presentation ; 5.1 surround sound, 2.0 stereophonic.
