American Experience Season 17 Episode 2

“The Fight” recalls the June 1938 heavyweight title bout between Joe Louis and the German Max Schmeling, and assesses its political and social ramifications. “It was going to pit whole nations and whole ideologies against each other,” says narrator Courtney B. Vance. Producer-director Barak Goodman also explores Louis’s place in America’s racial divide as well as the genial Schmeling’s ties to Hitler.
