Description

REMARKS OF HENRY T. KING, JR. I first saw Raphael Lemkin--the man who coined the word "genocide" and identified it as an international crime--at the Grand Hotel in Nuremberg in 1946. At that time, he was unshaven, his clothing was in tatters, and he looked disheveled. Lemkin was very upset. He was concerned that the decision of the International Military Tribunal (IMT)--the Nuremberg Court--did not go far enough in dealing with genocidal actions. This was because the IMT limited its judgment to wartime genocide and did not include peacetime genocide. At that time, Lemkin was very focused on pushing his points. After he had buttonholed me several times, I had to tell him that I was powerless to do anything about the limitation in the Court's judgment.
