The German American Bund was an organization of ethnic Germans living in the United States and was very pro-Nazi. After the U. S. entered World War 2 the government outlawed it. Apart from its admiration for Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany, the German American Bund program included anti-Semitism and strong anti-communist sentiments. It also demanded that the U. S. stay neutral. Public opinion in 1939 showed that Fritz Kuhn, the Bunds' leader, was seen as the leading anti-Semite in the country. He was later convicted of embezzling funds from the Bund and sent to prison. Membership figures for the Bund are not known with certainty, but reliable estimates place membership at 25,000 dues-paying members, including some 8,000 uniformed Storm Troopers. The Bund activities often led to clashes and street battles with other groups including Jewish veterans of World War I. During February 1939 a rally was held on George Washington's birthday in Madison Square Garden to proclaim the rights of white gentiles. The crowd of 20,000 consistently booed President Roosevelt and chanted the Nazi salutation "Heil Hitler."
The German American Bund was an American Nazi group founded in the 1930s. The primary purposes were to promote German identity and encourage a positive view in the U.S. of the rise of Nazism.
