Today is the 78th anniversary of the launch of Kristallnacht, The Night of Broken Glass, in Nazi Germany. Over two days, violence against Jews broke out across the country with organized destruction of Jewish synagogues, businesses and homes along with the murder of Jews, while others were rounded up and sent to concentration camps. We can never forget what happened on November 9 and 10, 1938, and we must stand together to say never again. #WeRemember

Today is World Freedom Day. Did you know that the day is about observing the 27th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989? Read more below. #WorldFreedomDay

She won election to the House in 1940, serving two non-consecutive terms. On December 8,1941, she was the only member of either chamber of Congress to vote against the declaration of war on Japan. #SHEstory
