This is such a powerful experience. I applaud the Hungarians for putting this together to share what happened in the past and in hope of stopping similar atrocities in the future.

If we were never reminded of issues like the Holocaust we as a society would never have a moral compass on which to base any of the worlds inhumanity to mankind. These museums are necessary in order for cultures and countries to understand that you have the capacity to make choices in either selecting the leaders you want or revolting against the leaders you have. No one ever said that obtaining freedom is pretty, but when you have it it can be joyous.

I believe it has lessons and ideas to be learned about how to portray information in a way that is as much art as it is exhibition. It truly one of the most impressive visits I have had in a museum in quite a while. I was struck by the music that filled each room and how it added to overall effort. It made me wonder if an exhibition on global warming or sustainability could be taken in the same direction.
