3. Building Community
Museums bring people together. The stories that memorial museums have to tell can be difficult. They range from the depths of horror to the heights of heroism. But museums provide a place for people to explore these complex stories for learning and inspiration.
Museums help societies deal openly and accurately with the past. Building a community and a culture of remembrance around the stories of the Holocaust strengthens the sense of shared responsibility for this history within society. These stories and this history belong to all of us. We all have a role to play in countering distortion.
Take a stand against distortion. Join the #Protectthefacts campaign.
