Program Description

Event Details

Kristallnacht, also referred to as the Night of Broken Glass, was a series of coordinated attacks against Jews throughout Nazi Germany and parts of Austria on November 9 - 10, 1938. German authorities looked on as SA paramilitary and civilians carried out these attacks and covered the streets with broken glass from the windows of Jewish-owned stores, buildings, and synagogues. This annual event at the Farmington Libraries commemorates the human spirit’s ability to overcome such persecution.

This year’s speaker is Dr. William Reszelbach, a child of holocaust survivors. His father survived four concentration camps, while his mother and her family hid underground for years. He is a former school teacher, chiropractor, businessman, certified hypnotherapist and lecturer.
