Museum of Tolerance Programs APPENDIX F Museum of Tolerance Educational and Outreach Programs- Current and Future The following is a synopsis of current, active programs offered on a regular, ongoing basis at the Museum of Tolerance, and the potential for future growth and expansion. Professional Development and Training Programs: Executive Leadership Program for Command Level Professionals Tools for Tolerance® for Command Staff is a 16 hour program for command level professionals addressing the unique challenges facing today’s law enforcement leadership. The program guides Command Staff to craft appropriate responses to complex issues. Today's leaders have no roadmap by which to refer. Combining timeless qualities with those that are timely for this new era, today's leaders must master activities their predecessors did not have to contemplate. Cultural Diversity The 8-hour course, Changing Role of Law Enforcement, the core law enforcement program, is designed to explore the evolving role of law enforcement in a rapidly changing, increasingly diverse society. Participants are introduced to new models, including “Soldier to Educator”, through which to view issues of diversity and to hone ethical decision-making skills. Hate Crimes Investigation for First Responders This new course, Tools for Tolerance® Hate Crimes for First Responders, is designed for law enforcement officers who are responsible for first response to a hate crime or hate incidents. It provides up-to-date information to assist officers in the safe and successful handling of hate and bias motivated crimes. The course provides officers with information and skills necessary to conduct a preliminary investigation involving hate crime. Tools for Tolerance® for Supervising Line Staff The first-line supervisor is an extremely challenging position. First-line supervisors have the ability to influence how policies and procedures are perceived and applied. However, first-line supervisors also find themselves in the unenviable position of being sandwiched between the great expectations of leadership and perceptions of power and accountability from subordinates. Drawing upon the models of the current Tools for Tolerance® for Command Staff program, this presentation assists supervisors to gain expertise in certain leadership skills and to infuse those skills in a para-military organizational structure. Beyond Diversity: Integrity as a Tool for Building Trust with Communities This program refines the role of the law enforcement professional in a diverse society, provides a new way of understanding communities, and suggests how to use integrity in developing trust. The training focuses on advanced skills that enhance an officer’s understanding of and ability to work with people from divergent backgrounds, how integrity can be used in the application, and the resulting levels of trust that can be built. Racial Profiling Train-the-Trainer The Museum of Tolerance provides the official train-the-trainer for the 5-hour POST mandated racial profiling training under the California Commission of Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST.) This program focuses on providing the information and skills necessary to ensure a successful presentation of the Racial Profiling curriculum to meet 13519 P.C. The three day course utilizes class discussions, exercises, and the POST video to cover topics such as: Racial Profiling Defined, Legal Considerations, History of Civil Rights, and Community Considerations. National Institutes Against Hate Crimes and Terrorism The National Institutes Against Hate Crimes and Terrorism enhance criminal justice professionals' capacity to proactively prevent the spread of hate crimes in their communities and to vigilantly identify and address potential terrorist threats. Jurisdictional teams formulate strategic approaches to combat hate crimes collaboratively based on a fresh understanding of the unique elements that differentiate them from other criminal acts. Leadership Initiatives for Command Staff This three day program for command level professionals addresses the unique challenges facing today’s law enforcement leadership. The program guides Command Staff to craft appropriate responses to complex issues. The goal for the Leadership Initiatives for Command Staff is to assist command staff and policy makers of law enforcement agencies become more effective leaders given the evolving role of law enforcement in an increasingly democratic and diverse society. Perspectives on Profiling Increased media scrutiny and public fear intensify law enforcement’s challenge to strengthen security without jeopardizing community trust and freedom. September 11th has forced change in profiling strategies, but must not be allowed to feed a culture of bias. This interactive program uses cutting edge technology to provide law enforcement with an innovative tool to hone their ethical decision making skills and meet this complex challenge. Protecting the Dignity of the Corrections Officer This innovative program focuses on the role that dignity plays in redefining the environment in which corrections officers work. While acknowledging the high degree of physical danger in the corrections field, this day-long program explores the nature of the non-physical dangers. The program introduces proprietary models and other innovative tools that help participants protect their soul, humanity, and dignity within this challenging environment Law Enforcement Partnerships with Schools (LPS) Law Enforcement Partnerships with Schools (LPS) brings key community stakeholders together to develop strategic coalitions for building inclusive and safe school communities. The program is designed to advance understanding and collaboration between law enforcement and education professionals, including classified staff. Participants are encouraged to examine their evolving professional roles and to recognize overlapping responsibilities in addressing pressing issues in their schools and neighborhoods. Tools for Tolerance® for Educators Tools for Tolerance® for Educators is an interactive, experiential program utilizing innovative approaches to introduce new paradigms toward building capacity for safe and respectful schools. The program offers a holistic approach to teaching tolerance in learning communities. Going beyond heroes and holidays, anti-bias education is articulated in terms of learning processes that promote self-reflection, critical thinking and social action. Tools for Tolerance® for Professionals Professional roles are evolving to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing and increasingly complex world. Today's workforce needs the competencies, attitudes and leadership models to navigate new terrain and recognize the opportunities that diversity and globalization present. Going far beyond the usual 'power-point training' experience, Tools for Tolerance® for Professionals provides truly transformative experiential and learner-centered programs to all members of workplace teams. Potential for Expansion of Existing Programs: The above Tools for Tolerance® training programs have hosted over 160,000 participants since the inception of the program in 1996, and have gained widespread recognition and acclaim. Demand for these programs for front line professionals, as well as public and private-sector employees is growing from throughout the United States, as well as internationally. The Museum of Tolerance can only meet this strong demand with expanded new facilities that have the capacity to accommodate larger groups, and an increased number of groups simultaneously. The proposed expansion of the Museum would provide the needed additional space for presentations to larger audiences, break out sessions for multiple smaller groups, and facilities for serving working lunches, and setting up displays for educational materials and resources. Importantly, the technology in the expanded areas will enable larger groups of professionals participating in programs at the Museum of Tolerance to interact not only among themselves, but with colleagues and peers in other parts of the country and around the world via videoconferencing and live internet communication. This is a vital aspect of programs designed to build strategic collaboration across professional disciplines, and promote partnership between allied agencies and practitioners in the same field of work. Along with increased space, expanded hours of operation are essential to provide effective service to professionals with varying deployment cycles and a wide range of different schedules. Moreover, as the number of graduates grows, so too does the demand for advanced initiatives and follow-up training. Research proves that this is absolutely essential to sustain the benefits of training and support the outcomes. In order to provide this service and at the same time continue to attract new participants in foundational programs, the Museum needs additional space. Potential for New Programs: As a result of its robust programs, the Museum of Tolerance receives an increasing number of requests for new programs and opportunities that we are unable to deliver with the limitations of our current facilities. Chief among these is the need for the Museum to design and host symposia, plenary sessions, seminars and conferences bringing together the professional constituencies within and across the spectrum of participants in our programs and beyond. In addition, professional organizations, corporate groups, non-profit entities, international bodies, academic institutions and business

    MUSEUM OF TOLERANCE JERUSALEMO A SIMON TWIESENTHAL CENTERJ MUSEUM BECOME A PARTNER IN CREATION For 2,000 years, the Jewish people have yearned to return to their Promised Land. Wherever they were, they always faced East in their prayers, never giving up hope that one day they or their progeny would return. They were proud to drink wine or have a charity box in their home from the Land of Israel. In May of 1948, their collective dreams were finally realized when David Ben-Gurion announced to the world the creation of the State of Israel. At this historic moment, 71 years later, the Simon Wiesenthal Center is in the final stages of building its Museum of Tolerance Jerusalem – MOTJ – in the heart of the city center. The MOTJ is within walking distance to the Old City and the Western Wall. It is a few blocks from the King David and Waldorf Astoria hotels, two blocks from Ben Yehuda Street, around the corner from the Mamilla shopping mall and in close proximity to the American Embassy, the Knesset, Supreme Court, and the Prime Minister and President’s residences. World leaders and dignitaries who come to Jerusalem will visit the Museum of Tolerance Jerusalem for years to come. Rabbi Marvin Hier To accomplish our goal, we are looking to partner with philanthropists and visionaries from the United States and around the world who will support this once-in-a-lifetime project. Donors to the Museum of Tolerance Jerusalem will have the additional privilege of linking their name in perpetuity in the center of Jerusalem, the eternal capital of the Jewish people.

ACTIVITY: Provide each student with a folder to serve as a portfolio of each student’s Museum experience. Ask students to staple the ends of the folders shut so that material can be kept in this folder. As students find material that relates to their experience, they will put it in the folder. Folder material may be used to support follow-up lessons, such as those suggested in this guide. Ask students to create on one side of the folder a symbol, drawing or image that they imagine will represent their trip to the Museum and/or the ideas, topics or issues they will encounter (prediction activity). Students can use pictures cut out of magazines, artwork they create, or material found on the Web or any other appropriate source. After the trip to the Museum, students will use the other side of the folder to symbolically represent what the Museum visit meant to them. Any journals created during and after the Museum visit can be saved in the portfolio for use later to support rough and final drafts of compositions. A companion or stand alone activity to the above asks students to think about specific images related to their Museum visit.

  • A Mobile Museum of Tolerance − Just in Time by Jacqueline Carroll
    A Mobile Museum of Tolerance − Just In Time by Jacqueline Carroll 2020 was an unprecedented and eye-opening year for the world. Not only did the coronavirus pandemic shut down the way we eat, work, and move around in society, it instilled a deep fear of getting and spreading the disease and led to the deaths of over two million people worldwide. Whilst stuck in our homes, we saw the bubbling rise of hatred and venom for “the other” spew out in catastrophic ways. This included the horrifying day where our Capitol was besieged by insurrectionists, some carrying the Confederate flag and another wearing a “Camp Auschwitz” shirt. If ever there was a need to lower the flame, take a breath and learn about our similarities and experiences, it is now. Which is why the launch of the Simon Wiesenthal Center’s Mobile Museum of Tolerance (“MMOT”) could not be more timely. I have had the great honor of being one of the first people to step foot in the MMOT. I believe it is an important vessel to teach people to recognize racism, anti-Semitism and hate, and to empower and inspire people to raise their voices against such hate to promote human dignity. When visitors first arrive at the MMOT, they know they are in for something special by witnessing the images of human rights heroes Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Mahatma Gandhi, Anne Frank and Malala Yousafzai staring back at them. Walking inside the state-of-the-art, COVID-friendly bus, visitors are provided with masks and hand sanitizer as well as powerful scrolling quotes surrounding the theater-style seats.
