Here are two segments from the excellent BBC series "The Nazis: A Warning from History." They average 45 min. per segment. **These two episodes are no longer available.**

**Part 1: Helped Into Power.** A detailed and sober account of German history from the aftermath of the First World War to Hitler's elevation to the post of Chancellor in 1933. This episode explains how a major European country fell under control of gangsters, aided by elements in the judiciary and business world. Each segment is approximately 8 to 10 min

**Part 2: Chaos and Consent** Begins in 1933 with the Nazi power and concludes on the eve of the Second World War. There is chilling evidence that the Nazis enjoyed a large measure of popular support finding scapegoats with a collective obsession. This program shows how the Jews were persecuted and children with disabilities were killed just for being different.
