The Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles has built a museum that travels. Its Mobile Museums are buses fitted with interactive technology and turned into classrooms, now part of a national fleet visiting communities across the country. On board, trained educators lead free workshops on histories of intolerance, from the Holocaust to the Civil Rights Movement, and on the choices people make in the face of hate.

Testimony is history told by the people who lived it. This workshop places accounts from the Holocaust alongside accounts from the Genocide Against the Tutsi in Rwanda and asks what they reveal when heard together. Through guided discussion, participants consider what these stories teach us and what it means to carry them forward.

Cost: Free; Registration is required.
