Description

In this episode of Real Talk Education, we analyze the historical parallels between Adolf Hitler’s rise to power and Donald Trump’s planned first-day executive actions. From “Draining the Swamp” rhetoric to targeting marginalized groups, we explore how Jim Crow laws inspired the Nuremberg Laws and how echoes of authoritarian tactics are resurfacing today. Discover actionable steps for educators, parents, and communities to protect democracy and resist authoritarianism.
