The Bedford Clergy Association and Rep. Ken Gordon prepared a video to commemorate Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken Glass on November 9.

On November 9–10, 1938, Nazi leaders unleashed a series of pogroms against the Jewish population in Germany and recently incorporated territories. This event came to be called Kristallnacht (The Night of Broken Glass) because of the shattered glass that littered the streets after the vandalism and destruction of Jewish-owned businesses, synagogues, and homes.
