Fight Hatred

Henry Ford, genius industrialist but also rabid anti-Semitic propagandist, issues an apology and disavows the lies he had been printing.

It had been Ford who introduced the notorious Russian forgery of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion into the USA, and who published The International Jew in his newspaper, the Dearborn Independent (every Ford franchise throughout the country was forced to distribute this newspaper to its customers).

For the first time, American Jewry felt that they could indeed fight back against the hate propaganda which had paved the way for Pogroms throughout centuries: A combination of libel lawsuits and consumer boycott campaigns brought even the all-powerful mogul to stop his hate preaching.
