Students collecting books for the book burning
Students are collecting books for the book burning on Berlin's Opernplatz. On May 10th 1933, undeutsches Schrifttum ('Un-German literature) was being burned in many German university towns. These macabre events were the highlight of the campaign Wider den undeutschen Geist ('Against the Un-German Spirit') after the national socialist's coming to power. The book burnings had been arranged by the German Student Association's Main Office for Press and Propaganda. Photograph. May 1933
