Holocaust Media

Here are two media sites regarding the Holocaust. The first is a video and the second is a timeline.

Here is the opening statement for a video about the Holocaust History Museum in Israel by Yad Vashem.
By reconstructing the events that led to the Holocaust, the Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum in Jerusalem aims to bring the past to life and prevent future atrocities through greater understanding. Explore.org founder Charles Annenberg Weingarten visits and talks to one of the museum's most senior Holocaust scholars.
