United States Holocaust Museum pushes Darfur to the front....

The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum or "USHMM" has taken an amazing and bold step forward in keeping the crisis in Darfur on the forefront of our minds, especially through this Thanksgiving season. Who Will Survive Darfur Today? is a chilling display of Brian Steidle's photographic essay on his time spent working for the African Union in Darfur. He lost his job by refusing to censor his photos and refusing to be silent about the atrocities being committed there. Now, for the first time USHMM is using its exterior wall to show Brian's ongoing images along with other photographers who were able to capture their own photos from the areas from Nov. 20-26 as a reminder to all that a genocide is happening right under our noses, and that we have the responsibility to respond after learning the lessons of the Holocaust.
If you can view the exhibit be ready for the harsh realities of the crisis, but do not let that stop you from doing what you would want others to do for you if the tables were turned-by at not turning away...
