Interactive exhibits engage people of all ages and backgrounds in understanding the human confrontation with hatred, the inherent vulnerability of democratic institutions, and the roles people adopt to survive— whether on a scale as significant as genocide or in daily life.

The space is designed to encourage both collaborative inquiry and exploration as well as individual reflection.

One of the greatest lessons of the Holocaust is that complicity was not inevitable. When people own and explore their choices and actions, they can move toward steps that aid and support their fellow human beings in the face of prejudice and violence.”
