“Who Goes Nazi?”: A Live Reading

What makes some people break ranks while others conform? And how might we apply her "Nazi detection test" to today’s political landscapes? Dorothy Thompson’s legendary Harper’s essay—written as fascism engulfed Europe—gets a chilling contemporary revival. Tony Award-winning actors Dylan Baker and Becky Ann Baker perform Thompson’s darkly comic character sketches live, bringing to life her incisive portraits of who collaborates, who caves, and who resists.
