Honorable Mr. Morgenthau

A documentary. The documentary is about the United States of America's immigration policy during the Holocaust. Throughout most of the 1930s and World War II, the United States government deliberately kept the influx of European Jews to America well below America’s official immigration quota for that part of the world. This policy, rooted in a variety of political concerns, as well as frequently transparent anti-Semitism left millions with no haven from the Nazi terror, and emboldened Hitler to transition from a policy of Jewish emigration to extermination.
