Kristallnacht: The Night of Broken Glass
Video from https://www.youtube.com/@ZoomerHistorian
26 Sept 2023: In November 1938 dozens of Jews were murdered in Germany and the property of 100's more was destroyed. This event is known as Kristallnacht and the Night of Broken Glass. The event is rarely even mentioned in it's proper context however and usually it is just displayed in a vacuum. Let's look at what actually happened, after all, what better place to do it than in my Hitler series where the context is available both leading up to and after the event? Why did the Pogrom happen? Who ordered it? Was it Hitler himself?
Hint: Uncle Adolf was extremely pissed off about it, and so was Himmler. I think finding out why they had that reaction is the better question. ~ @Cailen.
