The Century Part 5, Over the Edge (1936-1940)
20th Century America, 1936-1941:
The Century, America's Time is a series done by ABC in the 1990's that tells the story of the twentieth century, a century dominated by technology, destruction, and a time when America became the world's greatest economic and political power. Part 5, "Over the Edge" documents America's descent into WWII, a war Americans never wanted to be a part of. The episode begins with the 1936 Olympics in Berlin and ends with the passage of America's first ever peace-time draft in 1940 covering global events that horrified Americans who wanted nothing more than to maintain neutrality in a second European conflict that everyone knew would eventually come, dragging all nations involved, "over the edge." Project Credit: In order to get credit for watching this film, download the movie worksheet attached here, fill out the questions as you watch the film, and submit the completed movie worksheet.
