Speaking Up! Confronting Hate Speech underscores the power of words to lead to discrimination, persecution, and mass violence. Identity-based violence like genocide is rarely—if ever—a spontaneous event. This exhibition provides historical and current examples of the connection between words and mass atrocities, while empowering visitors with strategies to counter hate speech in their own communities. Rooted in the Museum’s crucial mission to fight antisemitism, this exhibition highlights the relationship between hatred of Jews and identity-based discrimination in many forms.
