Seventy-five years ago, on November 9-10th, the Nazis carried out vicious attacks against Jews throughout Nazi Germany and parts of Austria, which had ceased to function as an independent state with the Anschluss. In his Sunday mass, Pope Francis commemorated this pogrom, which is referred to as Kristallnacht, with these words, We renew our closeness and solidarity to the Jewish people, our big brothers, and pray to God that the memory of the past and of the sins of the past helps us to be always vigilant against every form of hate and intolerance. Amen. We must not forget Kristallnacht; there are things that we can all do to ensure that this does not happen. One of them is listening to the testimony of Margot Friedlander, a Holocaust survivor.
