The Story of Herschel Grinchband and the Night of Broken Glass
The story revolves around Herschel Grinchband, a sensitive Jewish boy who faced bullying and discrimination in Germany. After his parents were arrested and deported by the Nazis, Herschel sought revenge. He bought a revolver, went to the German embassy in Paris, and shot a junior official, explaining his actions as avenging his parents and protesting against the Jewish persecution. This event led to the infamous 'Night of Broken Glass', one of the most violent Nazi attacks on Jews.
