The premiere was HBO’s top-rated documentary for the year. A second installment also has been shown 12 times, and a third will debut on Feb....

The Jews living in Hitler’s Germany in 1935 were destined for eradication—a fate that may then have seemed unimaginable. But government policies starting with Hitler’s rise to power in 1933 had, by June 1935, stripped Germany’s Jews of virtually all rights of citizenship.

Indisputable historical facts establish that months before the infamous Nuremberg edicts, Jews in Germany were denied citizens’ rights that Aryans enjoyed....
