The Murder That Triggered Kristallnacht

from The Continuum

We explore how Herschel Grynszpan’s act of desperation in 1938 was used by the Nazis to justify Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken Glass, marking a deadly turning point toward the Holocaust. Also, how we are so quick to let hate lead to violence. This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit rejil.substack.com
