The propagandistic language in the article is unacceptable. It is important to have an article on Louis Brody, but it needs to be rewritten. --41.151.36.33 (talk) 17:52, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I have read about Hans-J. Massaquoi and about the captured pilots of the Red Tail. Massaquoi was well-treated by many N.S. officials. Being Black (or Mulatto in his case) was more of a curiosity than a threat for local Germans. They could be utilized if Germany was to retake the former colonies. And the few Black PoWs received the standard treatments in the camps, which improved over their segregated status back in America. There were no "strange fruits" in Germany. Even the Communist WEB Dubois found good words about Germany during his tour. And yes, Jesse Owens was the new Olympic god of the Berlin Games whereas his reception in New York was a great disappointment.10:35, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Could any black colleague of Brody be named that allegedly did not survive Nazi Germany, as it is told in the article. And could "racial stigmas prevalent against blacks" that were allegedly propagated in the movies he tool part in be named. I just saw Doctor Crippen (1942 film), in which he has a small role -- it's not actually a negative one -- the character he portrays wanted to help Dr. Crippen who he obviously thought was innocent. When speaking German one can easily hear an accent, that's all. 93.224.100.97 (talk) 22:25, 7 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Marriage

[edit]

Didn't the Nazi laws forbid from marrying an "Aryan"? Massaquoi, who was half-Aryan, feared (but wished for) relations with Aryan girls. --Error (talk) 01:02, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
