A protest greeted the opening of a controversial Holocaust art exhibit at New York’s Jewish Museum. Approximately 75 people protested Sunday at the opening of the “Mirroring Evil: Nazi Imagery, Recent Art.” Shouting such chants as “Shame on you” and “Don’t go in,” the protesters said the exhibit “trivializes the Holocaust and demeans the suffering of its victims.”
