What if I told you that we can connect Woodrow Wilson to the Nazis in a single degree of separation?

No, this is not the zillionth illustration of Godwin's Law that you've seen this week; it is simply little-known historical fact.

In this dose of Dangerous History, we'll talk about the little-known eugenicist psychiatrist who drafted the eugenics sterilization bill that Woodrow Wilson signed into law in 1911 (during his brief tenure as Governor of New Jersey), and who later collaborated with the Nazis who ran the notorious Buchenwald concentration camp three decades later.

Join CJ as he discusses the life and career of Dr. Edwin Katzen-Ellenbogen, and the historical context in which they occurred.

(*Apologies for the lackluster audio quality in some of the middle segments - I accidentally used my laptop's crummy integral mic instead of my usual podcasting mic for those.)
