| Larger Version National Socialists in Berlin launched a campaign to cleanse the city's libraries of' "un-German" material. Their first target was the Hirschfeld Institute. On May 6, 1933 a crowd of students, backed by storm troopers and marching band, stormed the Institute's offices. The raiders carted off all the contents of the priceless library. The raid culminated in a public bonfire that consumed the 10,000-plus books, articles, magazines, and research material that the Institute had collected and produced. Finally a sculpted bust of Hirschfeld was carried in a torchlight procession by the Nazis and tossed on top of the bonfire in Opera Square. |
