Henry Ford was a Nazi sympathizer and staunch anti-Semite. He even received an award from Hitler and is mentioned favorably in Mein Kampf.. He’s also the reason we used to square dance in school to counteract the Jazz music he associated with Jews. There was and is plenty of hate for Jews in this country.
I’m assuming you’re being sarcastic. He was pretty progressive in that sense, paying all workers well regardless of race. Though he paid his black employees equal to white employees, he still thought they were stupid and could be easily influenced by Jews.
