Question

The Kristallnacht pogrom in November 1938 was a turning point in the Nazis’ persecution of Jewish people. A pogrom is organized harassment of or violence against a group. Kristallnacht, or the Night of Broken Glass, was a planned nationwide campaign of street violence against Jews in Germany and Austria. Nazis pillaged Jewish communities and businesses. They burned synagogues and physically attacked Jewish people. Following Kristallnacht, all Jewish-owned businesses were forced to close. In 1939, after Germany’s invasion of Poland, World War II started. The Nazis then began to force Jewish people into ghettos. These were parts of cities that were sectioned off with walls and barbed wire. Ghettos were set up to segregate Jews from the rest of the population. At this point, Jewish people had lost most of their freedoms. They were not allowed to leave the ghettos where conditions were dirty and crowded. They would face darker horrors when Nazis began deportations to the concentration camps.

Based on the passage, why was the Kristallnacht pogrom a turning point?

A

C
