Rachel Maddow Presents: Burn Order
"Rachel Maddow Presents: Burn Order" is a six-episode narrative podcast that investigates one of the most shocking decisions in American history: the executive order to target and round up Japanese American citizens during World War II. The series examines how the policy came to be, who was behind it, who attempted to stop it, and the heroism needed to end it. It reveals brazen lies and stereotypes pushed by senior government officials, desperate efforts to prevent the policy, and a community terrorized and sent to detention camps. The podcast uncovers a bombshell discovery that ultimately exposed the truth behind the unconstitutional policy.
