A brick smashing through the bedroom window jolted nine-year-old Susan Warsinger awake on the night of November 9, 1938. As her brother Joseph peered out the window, he turned and said, “Susi, it is our neighbors!” That night of orchestrated violence against Jews—known as Kristallnact (or “Night of Broken Glass”)—changed their lives forever.
