Rabbi Henry B. Holocaust testimony (HVT-539) interviewed by Dana L. Kline and Frances Proctor Cohen,

Videotape testimony of Rabbi Henry B., who was born in Fürth, Germany, in 1907. He speaks of family life before the war; antisemitism in Furth; his experience on Kristallnacht in Frankfurt am Main; and his 1940 departure for Cuba, from where he later emigrated to the United States. He stresses that antisemitism existed in Germany before Hitler, recalling the increasing repression and the persecution of German Jews before the outbreak of war. He also describes his return to Germany in 1950 to visit his father's grave; his brief stint as the head rabbi in Lima, Peru; and his anger at the United States' failure to help the Jews during the war.
