A little bit about “The Courage To Remember …
“The Courage To Remember” is an historical exhibit of the Holocaust created by the Museum of Tolerance. The Foundation For California is pleased to coordinate a statewide tour of this traveling exhibit over the next year to continue Holocaust education in communities throughout California.
This exhibit is a 42 panel educational exhibit on the Holocaust of 1933-1945. It is an historical account of the Nazis’ campaign in which 6 million Jews and others (political dissidents, P.O.W.’s, Slavs, Gypsies, homosexuals and the mentally ill) were killed between 1933 and 1945.
The crimes of the Nazis during the Holocaust serve as a dark chapter of the 20th century.
This exhibit of the Museum of Tolerance is made possible by an educational grant from SNCF and presented by the Foundation For California. For additional information about the exhibit and touring schedule, please contact:
