We are teaching people over another responsibility—the choice we each have to act or not to act and the truth: It didn’t have to happen, and that they have the power to prevent consequences of that decision. With your support, we continue building the next one. what is the world’s most comprehensive collection of evidence of this “crime of all crimes” against humanity. And what this evidence makes Three years ago, one of our Belfer Teachers so motivated his eighth painfully clear is that the Holocaust happened because ordinary people graders at a Catholic school in Louisville, , by what they learned became accomplices to mass murder. Whether motivated by indifference, studying the Holocaust that they began to wonder why every student career advancement, peer approval, or , in the long span did not have the same opportunity. Putting one of the lessons into motion, between the inflammatory words of anti-Jewish hate to the death machines they decided to act. Building on their efforts, two more successive classes at Auschwitz, many had the opportunity to stop it. Neighbors and friends, of eighth graders joined the cause to change education in their state. These doctors and judges, businessmen and clergy, educators and policemen teenagers made headlines in May when Kentucky’s governor, as a result and, ultimately, even other governments—chose not to act. of their initiative, signed a measure directing the state education commis- sioner to develop a Holocaust and genocide curriculum guide. In 1979, when framing the contours of this institution—what they called a living memorial—members of the Presidential Commission on the Holocaust, led by Elie Wiesel, refused to be constrained by the walls of a building. They were driven by the memory of the millions slaughtered under the watch of the world. And by the conviction that when unchecked hatred is unleashed against any one people, ultimately all are engulfed in the fire. No society, not even a democratic one, is immune. This institution’s role is to remember and to teach this truth to people everywhere. On the first page of their report to the president, members of the commission set in motion a task without end, stating simply, “Our wish is to reach and transform as many human beings as possible”—a challenge made anew to each generation to ensure that this truth forever shapes the human experience. Through your commitment to this cause and the trust you have placed in us, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum continues to be an institution with a global reach unlike any other. And given the profound social changes and challenges, as extremism, genocide, and hate become an increasingly more vital part of the global conversation, this is precisely the moment this institution was created for.

That is the number of people who were engaged last year by this institution. Nearly two million had what many describe as a “life-changing” experience at the Museum itself—the permanent memorial core of our timeless cause. But the past year was again one of tremendous growth in our outreach. The magnitude and diversity of American cities we have been to—through traveling exhibitions, campus activities, outreach to religious groups, and teacher training—is astonishing. You helped carry the lessons from classrooms to judges’ chambers, from inner cities to hard-to-reach communities, taking truth into the places where people work and learn. Equally impressive is our growing presence in cyberspace. As the world’s leading online authority on the Holocaust, our multilingual global classroom, ushmm.org, engaged some 20 million people last year—not just Americans, but global citizens from China to Iran to Russia. Much has been accomplished together, yet this memory demands more of us. Humanity is confronting serious challenges that we are uniquely positioned to help address.

A shooter explains his methodical approach to the “one-bullet-one Jew” slaughter of parents and children in Belarus. A woman recalls how the radio blared to conceal the screams of Jews in her Polish village. These are just some of hundreds of chilling testimonies of witnesses, collaborators, and perpetrators that are part of the world’s most comprehensive collection of evidence of what Churchill called “a crime without a name.” Across the world, in more than 40 countries, the Museum is in a race against time to rescue evidence before it is too late, before fragile artifacts and documents disintegrate and while those who can remember and are willing to speak are still able. Through our international leadership, what had been the world’s largest closed Holocaust archive, the International Tracing Service in , is now transferring millions of pages of documentation to the Museum. Once the transfer is completed in 2010, it will more than double our current archives. Each piece of evidence and research provides critical insights into what happened and how it happened. Understanding the Holocaust is vital to issues of critical relevance today. How and why do societies collapse? What are the conse- quences of seeing human beings as an expendable commodity? What is the cost of neutrality? To victims? To bystanders? To truth? This irrefutable evidence and our commitment to the growth and vitality of make everything else possible—they are not the end, they are the means.

But it takes perseverance, dedication, and determination to rescue the evidence—fragile pieces of history that may be locked in govern- ment files or decaying in attics in long-forgotten boxes belonging to Jewish communities or individuals. What is available today may become inaccessible or unsalvageable tomorrow. The Museum’s team of archival researchers is engaged in a global search-and-rescue mission to continue building what is already the world’s most comprehensive collection of Holocaust documentation.

Fifteen scholars from North America, Europe, , and participating in a two-week workshop finally gained access to the archive, which had been closed to the public for more than 60 years. They began to review the materials, which include millions of records relating to concentration camps, , ghettos, arrests, and forced and slave labor, as well as a large postwar collection relating to displaced persons and refugee resettlement. Working together in a collaborative setting, these scholars laid the groundwork for future workshops, joint publications, and research projects. A second workshop is planned for 2009.

The Museum led the years-long effort to open the International Tracing Service archive in Bad Arolsen, Germany, which houses millions of Holocaust- era documents. Copies are now available at the Museum.

20 annual report 2007–08 Our Relentless Search for Truth 21 the internet is our biggest opportunity and our biggest problem Just as the Nazis were able to infiltrate the public consciousness through their mastery of the media, today’s hate-mongers exploit technology to advance their incendiary messages of antisemitism, including denial and minimi- zation of the Holocaust. This institution is pushing back in a big way, reaching important new audiences everywhere to help ensure that antisemitism is seen as a universal problem. Already the world’s leading online authority on the Holocaust, the Museum in 2001 began creating multilingual Web pages to serve the millions of people from other countries who were coming to our site. In 2007, there were more than 23 million visits to ushmm.org, and we project 25 million in 2008. But more significant is where this audience is coming from—almost 40 percent from outside the United States, with every country represented with the single exception of North Korea. After the launch in Arabic, visits from Saudi Arabia increased from 5,982 to 87,710 in one year. Iranian visitation grew from 5,871 to 72,443 when we offered Farsi. Our site is accessible in the languages of Pakistan, China, and Russia as well as to the entire French- and Spanish- speaking worlds. And as each translation comes online, our cyberspace visitors increasingly engage with us in their own languages. In other words, our global classroom has become an open door for dialogue. But cyberspace is vast and so is our challenge. In a constantly evolving Web 2.0–world, it is no longer enough to put information on our Web site. Our Museum is reaching out, taking our message and content to other major sites where people go to socialize, to learn, to interact with one another. But what different ways of engagement might become more effective with our key audiences in a rapidly changing 21st-century landscape? How can emerging technologies strengthen our global impact in pushing back against hate and indifference? This The Museum is reaching history, this truth for humankind, for all time, millions of young people demands that we constantly look forward poised every year—online and to leverage new opportunities that lie ahead. off-line—with the truth.

28 annual report 2007–08 Our Relentless Search for Truth 29 After the Holocaust the world pledged to end genocide, yet we have failed over and over again. Even in the age of 24-hour televised news and the Internet, with information about atrocities instantly available to governments and citizens, why when the truth is known, is there still reluctance to respond? The founders of this institution, this living memorial to the victims of the Holocaust, noted that of all the issues they addressed none was more perplexing or urgent than trying to prevent genocide. As Elie Wiesel put it, “a memorial unresponsive to the future would also violate the memory of the past.” In other words, memory imposes an obligation to act. We are working simultaneously on two critical fronts to utilize our unique stature, access, and ability to convene leaders and decision makers. The Museum has been instrumental in raising public awareness and catalyzing action against the genocide occurring today in Darfur, Sudan, and those areas where the probability for genocide is high. We have raised the bar in bearing witness with our mapping initiatives with Google Earth, accessible by 400 million users worldwide. Our global audience, materials, and expertise give countless human rights organizations and grassroots movements the increased capacity needed to be more effective in their work. But the real challenge is getting ahead of events. We were among the first to issue a genocide emergency alert for the situation in Darfur— even before the U.S. State Department. So for us the question is: How can we overcome the absence of effective structures to make the next time different? Working not just with citizens, but also with leaders, policy makers, and our partners in government, the Museum is forging new partnership-based initiatives committed to keeping the issue of genocide prevention Aerial view of a home on front and center in our national debate and to fire during a government- providing the concrete recommendations and backed Janjaweed attack tools to make a defining difference. on a village in Darfur, Sudan.

Could thousands of lives have been saved? Today, thanks to the Museum, satellite imagery through Google Earth allows millions of people to witness for themselves the evidence of genocide. No longer can we say we did not act because we did not know. Using the latest technology, the Museum’s Genocide Prevention Mapping Initiative is creating for the first time a compre- hensive view of the effects of genocide and related atrocities. Google Earth’s high-resolution imagery documents the destruction of villages, fields, and pastures, and the growth of refugee camps. But it is the authoritative data, photo- graphs, and other evidence gathered by Museum staff members and linked with the satellite images that complete the true picture about what is occurring on the ground.

36 annual report 2007–08 Our Relentless Search for Truth 37 This is a pivotal moment in world history in which the crimes of the Holocaust—and what led up to them—feel all too relevant. What is the best response to the rising tide of hate? How do we balance security and freedom when confronting extremism? What are the consequences of indifference in our increasingly interconnected world? We have demonstrated there is nothing like the power of Holocaust education. An encounter with this history, this memory, this truth can be transformative. Whether our audience is young people or adults, each person comes to realize that education alone is insufficient. What matters is what people do with it. History is not inevitable. Everyone shares the responsibility for creating it. It is a myth to think that under the Nazi regime professionals—or even the killers themselves— did not have discretion. They did. But as has observed, “Under certain conditions people do things they would not normally do.” That is why we are reaching out to leaders who have responsibility for the public good to prepare them for defining moments. Whether making foreign policy, adjudicating the law, or protecting a civilian population, leaders can stand up against hate and injustice and choose to act when they witness an assault on human dignity. But our outreach to the general public, those who ultimately hold their leaders accountable, is just as crucial.
