Yet many Americans remained largely indifferent as he turned his dangerous ambitions abroad. Not William Bailey. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Just days after violent anti-Semitic riots had broken out in Berlin, the SS \u003ci\u003eBremen\u003c\/i\u003e, the flagship of Hitler's commercial armada, was welcomed into New York Harbor. Bailey led a small group that slipped past security and cut down the Nazi flag from the boat in the middle of a lavish party. A brawl ensued, followed by a media circus and a trial, in which Bailey and his team were stunningly acquitted. The political victory ultimately exposed Hitler's narcissism and violent aggression for all of America to see. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Agitator\u003c\/i\u003e is the captivating story of Bailey's courage and vision in the Bremen incident, the pinnacle of a life spent battling against fascism.
