Today in Labor History May 10, 1933: The Nazis staged massive public book burnings, beginning in Berlin, with students from Humboldt University, destroying thousands of titles. German poet, Heinrich Heine, said back in the early 1800s, "Where one burns books, one will soon burn people." They burned books written by Jewish, half-Jewish, communist, socialist, anarchist, liberal, pacifist, lgbtq and sexologist authors. The first books burned were those of Karl Marx and Karl Kautsky. Many of the books that were burned were seized from the library of Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld, director of the Institute for Sexual Science (Institut für Sexualwissenschaft), which the Nazis raided in Berlin on May 6, 1933.

#NaziGermany surrendered unconditionally to the Allies on #ThisDayInHistory in 1945. Contrary to self-serving myth, few #Nazis were punished — most kept their jobs and were incorporated into a US-led world order, and were eagerly used against the #Soviets in an emerging #ColdWar.
