Holocaust Museum

Ms. Edwards and Ms. Wood went to the Holocaust Museum and walked the three floors of exhibits that were dedicated to the time period in history when the Jewish people of Europe were persecuted against by the Nazi Party and Hitler. They were not able to take pictures inside the museum and they wouldn't let me out of the backpack. Below are two pictures that Ms. Edwards took outside of the museum.



The museum also had exhibits to other cultures and time periods of history when people were persecuted against. A current example being the people of Darfar. It is amazing and horrifying that events like this still go on today. At least there are people out there who are courageous enough to share their stories and let the world know what is going on. Hopefully there are courageous people out there to stop these events from occurring as well.
