Hitler’s Courts: Betrayal of the Rule of Law in Nazi Germany

Join us to view Hitler’s Courts, a 35-minute documentary, followed by a discussion and history lecture by filmmaker and author Joshua M. Greene. 7PM Central/8PM Eastern

What happens when the legal establishment becomes a powerful tool in the hands of a dictatorial government? This eye-opening talk will reveal the consequences of appointing judges based not on their wisdom but on their allegiance to the head of state, and explores how the German court system facilitated the rise of Hitler.

This program is co-sponsored by the Schaumburg Township District Library and the Arlington Heights Memorial Library.
