Today we welcome back speaker David Jones, for his virtual program, titled 1936 Berlin Olympics: The Nazi Games. The 1936 Olympic Games held in Berlin are notorious for the tightly controlled image the Nazis presented to the world. But, these Games also became a blueprint for future Games that is followed to the present day. We will look at the history of the Olympics and the complicated legacy of the 1936 Games.
