The Los Angeles-based Simon Wiesenthal Center’s Museum of Tolerance marked its fifth anniversary by unveiling a $1.4 million multimedia and interactive exhibit. Visitors enter a replica of a 1950s diner, with counter stools and red booths, where they can view two different videos — one probing the boundary between free speech and hate speech, the other dealing with moral choices and attitudes related to a fatal drunk driving accident. After each presentation, viewers can ask pre-programmed questions of the film’s characters, then vote their personal reactions.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
