The Kielce pogrom of 1918 refers to the events that occurred on 11 November 1918, in the Polish town of Kielce located in current Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship. According to 1919 Report by Henry Morgenthau, Sr. who led the ''Mission of The United States to Poland''; during Poland's fight for independence towards the end of the First World War, shortly after the Austro-Hungarian troops were evacuated from Kielce by their military command, the city authorities allowed local Jewish community to hold a rally at the Polish Theatre. The participants rallied behind the Jewish demand for political and cultural autonomy.〔Mission of The United States to Poland, Henry Morgenthau, Sr. Report〕 According to one U.S. source, during the rally, anti-Polish speeches were also being delivered. As the meeting went on, a crowd of Polish onlookers gathered outside the theatre.〔 At 6:30 P.M. the meeting began to break up, wrote Morgenthau. Only about 300 people remained in the auditorium. Soon, a group of soldiers entered the theatre and began to search for arms, driving the Jews towards the stairs, where a double line of extremists, some armed with clubs and bayonets beat the Jews as they were leaving the building according to Morgenthau. Outside the theatre, Jews were assaulted by the right-wing mob again. Jewish homes and shops were damaged. During the pogrom four Jews were killed and a large number wounded, wrote Morgenthau.〔〔 based on information provided by a Russian writer M.J. Olgin, a Jewish Communist representing Bolshevik interests in Poland which ultimately led to the Polish–Soviet War of 1919. Olgin escaped to USA in 1915 and began to advocate that the affairs of Poland need to be taken over by an external force.〕 "A number of civilians have been indicted for participation in this excess", but have not been brought to trial by the time, his report was delivered.〔〔(Województwo Świętokrzyskie – Kielce (including Kielce Synagogue/Synagoga w Kielcach). ) 〕 ==See also==
