Henry Ford | A Discussion on the Man of Contradiction
from 15-Minute History · host 15-Minute History Podcast
Henry Ford paid his workers more than anyone thought reasonable, then beat them when they tried to organize. He put ordinary Americans on the open road and gave Nazi Germany a hero to admire. This week, we're sitting with the uncomfortable reality that both things are equally, undeniably true.What do you think? Can a legacy be great and monstrous at the same time, or does one eventually cancel the other out? Drop your thoughts in the comments. Join us every Monday for episodes and discussions, and Thursdays for pop quizzes and Sketches in History. We love hearing from you, so leave a comment below!
