Taking a Stand: Memorial Museums Fight Hate

ON-SITE ONLY FORMAT

Do memorial museums have a special role to play in addressing racism and hate today? How might we use our collections to address contemporary issues in an increasingly volatile world? To what extent should we take an advocacy role in relation to current issues? How should we respond when museums that memorialize victims become targets of hate themselves?
