Kristallnacht documentary to be shown Oct. 27


In early November 1938, Nazi forces perpetrated a violent, coordinated riot on Jewish people, synagogues, and businesses all across Germany and German-controlled territories. This night left no doubt about Hitler's intent to destroy the Jews. It came to be known as "Kristallnacht," the night of broken glass. The 70th anniversary of this event is coming soon, and as part of the events commemorating it, including the visit of a survivor of that night, a documentary on Kristallnacht will be screened.

The Educational Foundations and Research Critical Documentary Film Series is proud to present this documentary at 4 p.m. Monday, Oct. 27, in the Education Building's lecture bowl, Room 109.
