Eighty years later, the West tends to forget or gloss over the racial ideologies of this global inferno as it heralds the "good war" and the "Greatest Generation." This course recognizes that generation while restoring race and racism to their central place among the driving forces and lasting legacies of the war. This course underscores the creation of our present in the United States and abroad through its attention to race in the Second World War.
