The Trouble Makers : A Brief Exploration of Bigotry in America
This episode is from the WNYC archives. It may contain language which is no longer politically or socially appropriate.
Based on "The Trouble Makers: An Anti-Defamation League Report" by Benjamin R. Epstein and Arnold Forster.
Several stories of discrimination based on religion and race: a couple receives a dead rat from their neighbors, a veteran is denied a home because he is Jewish, a group of people vandalize a home because the inhabitants are not white, and other similar stories.
