On March 6th, 2016 I went to the Museum of Tolerance, a multimedia museum in Los Angeles, is designed to examine racism and prejudice around the world with a strong focus on the history of Holocaust and to fostering tolerance through educational outreach community involvement and social action. First thing I noticed as I walked in the museum was that there were pictures on the wall of holocaust survivors that explains how they fought in their time and the struggles they had to go through. It was
The Museum of Tolerance has taught me many things. While there were other things I learned, a lot of them fall under the same few categories. These categories include the power of words and images, the dynamics of discrimination, and personal responsibility. The Museum of Tolerance showed some new information and some old, but they all related to at least one of these themes. In the next few paragraphs, I will reflect on those themes. Words and images have the power to convince, to inform, to entertain
Museum of Tolerance Experience Visiting the Museum of Tolerance this past weekend was an experience I will never forget. The whole concept of the Holocaust always saddened me and it never ceased to surprise me how cruel and inhuman this massacre had been. As I sat next to my family listening to a 92 year old Holocaust survivor named William Harvey speak about his experience I was immediately touched and truly humbled.

Museum of Tolerance The Museum of Tolerance is a large museum that focuses on racism and prejudice. It is also home to a memoriam of the Holocaust. The museum attempts to crack the barriers of racism, prejudices, and discrimination. I had never previously visited the Museum of Tolerance before this class. I have been told of how it was mostly notorious for its Holocaust exhibit and its messages prejudice. From personal experience, the Museum of Tolerance appeared to be a popular place to visit
above-entitled question is no, the Museum of Tolerance is not tolerant. The long answer, since everything has both long and short answers these days, is the Museum tries to be as tolerant as it can, but as my guide commented "humanity is simply incapable of not being prejudiced." Instead of spending the following pages explaining why this exhibit is less tolerant then that exhibit, I would like to break this paper up into two parts: the first a discussion on the tolerance of the museum's Tolerancenter
