Bill Smaldone, professor of history at Willamette University, talks about growing fascism in the United States. He compares the social and political elements in Germany after WW I that nurtured the rise of the Nazi party and compared that to the modern-day United States. He makes a case for even distribution of wealth and civil rights for all as two components needed to quell growing fascist ideas in this country.
