        I wonder what the Roosevelt's knew about the Holocaust at the time. Chaplin later stated that he would not have made "The Great Dictator" if he knew about the genocidal atrocities of the Third Reich. 🤔

        FDR knew. Refused to bomb railways to Auschwitz, Jewish leaders begged. FDR's view of Jews known since his days in Harvard. FDR refused to let Jewish refugees in. I posted here photo St. Louis. J. Owens' quote may clear FDR's perspective about non white.http://articles.latimes.com/2013/apr/07/opinion/la-oe-medoff-roosevelt-holocaust-20130407 …

        Recently watched Mickey Rooney in Night at the Museum which was released 65 years after this photo (2006), what longevity!
