"A new #documentary, “Sapiro V. Ford: The #Jew Who Sued #HenryFord,” tells the story of #Jewish lawyer #AaronSapiro, who in the 1920s sued one of #America’s most famous #antisemites, industrialist Henry Ford, in U.S. District Court in downtown #Detroit.

The #libel #lawsuit led the #automaker to publicly apologize for his #antisemitic views and shut down his #newspaper, The #DearbornIndependent, which frequently published antisemitic material and attacked Sapiro, accusing him of being part of an international Jewish #conspiracy.

The #filmmakers describe the legal case as a milestone for American Jews and “the moment when #hatespeech went on #trial.” The case was framed as a battle of David and Goliath."
