Key Terms Instructions: Please define the following key terms. Show Who? What? Where? When? Why Important? 
 Kristallnacht

Accepted Answer

Kristallnacht, also known 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. The attacks were carried out by the Nazi regime and its supporters, resulting in the destruction of Jewish homes, businesses, and synagogues, as well as the arrest and murder of many Jewish individuals.

The name "Kristallnacht" refers to the shattered glass from the windows of Jewish-owned buildings that littered the streets after the attacks. This event marked a significant escalation in the persecution of Jews by the Nazi regime and is often seen as the beginning of the Holocaust.

The importance of Kristallnacht lies in its role as a turning point in Nazi anti-Semitic policies, as well as its impact on the Jewish community and the world's understanding of the horrors being perpetrated by the Nazis. It serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of unchecked hatred and discrimination, and the need to actively combat such ideologies in order to prevent similar atrocities from occurring in the future.
