During the 1930s and early 1940s Nazi sympathizers had a presence in the U.S. primarily through the German American Bund. This group promoted Nazi ideology organized rallies and sought to align German Americans with Hitler’s regime. Their most infamous event was a 1939 rally at Madison Square Garden attended by 20,000 supporters. Despite their efforts the Bund faced strong opposition from anti fascist groups and the U.S. government. After America entered World War II authorities cracked down on Nazi sympathizers arresting or deporting Bund leaders. Though some influential figures expressed isolationist or pro German views the vast majority of Americans rejected Nazism and the nation played a crucial role in defeating Hitler’s regime.
