The Nuremberg Trials | "Say I Slew Them Not" (Republish)

The Nuremberg Trials | "Say I Slew Them Not" (Republish)

During the summer break, the 15-Minute History podcast team are republishing some of their favorite episodes. This episode and discussion on the Nuremberg Trials originally aired on April 19, 2021.

__

Twenty-one men sat in the dock awaiting their fate. Once the leaders of Europe's mightiest nation who had strutted proudly across the world stage arrogantly proclaiming the supremacy of the Aryan race, their faces remained defiant as their empire lay in ruins outside. Some showed open contempt for the victors who now sat in judgment over them. Others sat quietly, their faces frozen and their eyes fixed forward. Some even looked surprised at having been charged with crimes against humanity, since they were "just following orders." Their leader, now dead, had commanded them to murder millions, and as good Germans, they had done just that. Now, with the world's most terrible war at an end, they would face justice.

Join us as we teach you about the Nuremberg Trials, the monsters who faced justice, and the radicalism that corrupted an entire nation.
