"Don't be a Sucker" is an antifascist, anti-prejudice US propaganda film from 1943. Here's a small segment that I saw highlighted. It's teaching lessons that we've all seen many times before.

I love that film. That was one of those grade school rainy day films. I've enjoyed it on YouTube from time to time. I like how ernest it is.

It was an effective propaganda film directly aimed at a large chunk of America that, at the time, was sympathetic toward Germany - not unlike the current large chunk that's sympathetic toward Trumpism.

FTFY.

“It has anti-racist and anti-fascist themes, and was made to educate viewers about prejudice and discrimination. The film was also made to make the case for the desegregation of the United States armed forces.”
