| Engaging Exhibits: The Mobile Museum of Tolerance offers an array of immersive historical narrative experiences. Visitors can watch a documentary featuring various American Civil Rights heroes, drawing parallels with other civil rights movements throughout US history. They can also learn about Anne Frank and the Holocaust through a short film and discussion, fostering an understanding of anti-Semitism and resistance. A video exploring the roles of ordinary people during the Holocaust will stimulate discussion about contemporary relevance and encourage activism for tolerance. Lastly, a workshop on digital media literacy will equip participants with the knowledge to identify harmful media, combat online hate, stand against violence, and shape a positive social media presence. |
