Story of Fascism

Rick Steves, yes, that Rick Steves of the world of travel, put together an excellent primer, "The Story of Fascism" about five years ago. I somehow missed the release at the time, circa 2019, but I recently discovered it.

It's 56 minutes long, so it takes an investment of time, but it's very well done and worth it. Lots of footage that I had never seen before, and some interesting facts about Hitler, Mussolini and Franco of Spain that I was not aware of. 

If nothing else, it's a nice historical lesson, a recap of fascism and how it progressed dating back to the 1930's. You will notice multiple similarities to fascism in how Donald Trump acts in this modern era.
