"This very day, France, home of the "LumiEres" and Human rights, home of welcome and shelter, France accomplished the irreparable." Jacques CHIRAC, President of the French Republic, 1995.This 2-CD set presents a work based upon the National Institute for the Audiovisual's archives reflecting the role of the official medias from 1941 to 1944 on the anti-Semite propaganda and against the resistance. The second record presents testimonies and accounts by deportees. Although time has passed, the history of the Government's responsibility is still recent. This 2-CD set is not only to of popularize major historical facts. Our awareness of such horror is of all importance in order to prevent slipping back and to reinforce our vigilance so as to safeguard our democratic values." Patrick FrEmeaux
