	U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum Opens
		I looked at the survivors of the Holocaust who had come to the haven of our people, which is Israel, who had embarked on a new life and had built a new society of which we are so proud.
		I saw the children and grandchildren for whom the Holocaust is but a memory, a nightmare which their parents and grandparents have recounted to them.
		May this new museum, situated in the capital of the free world, in exposing the unspeakable evil and suffering of the Holocaust, strengthen the commitment to life, to tolerance and human kinship, among all who visit it, indeed, among the generations to come.

		The Museum's message that support for Jews is the sole measure of decency during the Second World War leads to anomalies which, in an American museum raised on ground hallowed to the principles of liberty on which this republic is based, can only be called shocking.
		That the US Holocaust Memorial Council is aware of the work of revisionist scholars is clear: the Council's literature is replete, not with substantive refutations of revisionist scholarship, but with slander and polemic.
		The US Holocaust Memorial Museum, and the Council that runs it, as agencies of the government in which the American people is sovereign, must be removed from the special interest that now controls it.

	J. Katz: United States Holocaust Memorial Museum
		The importance of preserving memory and instilling the significant events of World War II relating to the tragedy of the Holocaust moved to the forefront in the minds of survivors as well as historians.
		Members on the United Sates Holocaust Memorial Council were worried that if the museum was not created in the nation’s capital, in the heart of the country, it would be perceived as a "Jewish museum" and its national purpose would be wrongly overlooked.
		Crucial to maintaining the survival of the Holocaust in memory is the way visitors to museums and memorials such as the USHMM in Washington view and reflect upon the Holocaust’s historical significance, aftermath and relevance in society.

		He felt that relatively open simple cases permitted a strong emotional interaction between the museum visitor and the artifacts, and made it clear that the artifacts were props within the overall story of the Holocaust Museum, sharing their place with the signage and video monitors placed throughout the galleries.
		For example, prior to opening the Museum, the four thousand shoes from Majdanek required extensive cleaning, During their one year on exhibit, the shoes have developed a more extensive layer of dust than when they were first received at the Museum, requiring yet another round of cleaning.
		With each new acquisition, the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum recommits itself to the preservation and conservation of a special piece of history so that, when the voices of the donors telling their stories can no longer be heard, the artifacts and records remain to bear witness.

	slithytove: United States Holocaust Memorial Museum
		I think one of the purposes of the Museum is to put a human face on horror, to make that well-known statistic of seven million deaths seem less like just another large number, and more like your mother, father, or best friend being starved, tortured, then murdered seven million times over.
		If part of the aim of the Museum is to 'put a face on horror', to make the visitor understand, not just intellectually but viscerally, that every one of those 7 million was an individual with a life a lot like himself, then this display is successful.
		In a sense, museums like the Hiroshima Peace Museum and the Holocaust Museum are about us, in that they are an attempt to get at our feelings about war and human brutality towards other humans, and to make us think about why things happened, and how they might be prevented in the future.

		The museum's permanent exhibition spans three floors and recounts the rise of Nazism and the stories of millions of Jews, Gypsies, and homosexuals killed by the Nazis.
		The museum leaves little to the imagination with displays of shoes from Holocaust victims, description of the gas chamber's methods, and a freight train like those used to carry Jews from Warsaw to the Treblinka death camp.

		Although the museum is devoted to the darkest chapter in human history, in 2000, it ranked third in popularity among the many attractions in Washington, DC, right after the White House and the Vietnam Wall.
