			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While preparing for my DC trip with Pat and Ronnie, I&#8217;ve been checking out the current exhibits at the United States Holocaust Museum. It is amazing how much more information is currently being shared on-line than ever before. I came across <a href="http://www.ushmm.org/propaganda/video/?content=ff3" target="_blank">this short video series </a>that delves into the use of propaganda&#8212;-how it can contribute to genocide, but also asks the difficult, anti-democratic question of whether using &#8220;good propaganda&#8221; can help a country heal after a genocide.</p>
<p>Other interesting exhibits include:  <a href="http://www.ushmm.org/propaganda/exhibit.html#/gallery/results" target="_blank">A gallery of Nazi propaganda images </a>(check out &#8220;The Poisonous Mushroom&#8221; an antisemitic children&#8217;s book that was read in schools); <a href="http://www.ushmm.org/museum/exhibit/focus/maps/" target="_blank">Mapping the Holocaust </a>which helps students understand geography, which is important when you consider the Holocaust spanned 20 countries; <a href="http://www.ushmm.org/museum/exhibit/focus/american_responses/" target="_blank">American response to the Holocaust</a>&#8211;for better, but often for worse; <a href="http://www.ushmm.org/museum/exhibit/online/" target="_blank">and others that deal with </a>Kristallnacht, Nazi persecution of the handicapped and homosexual and children&#8217;s experiences during the Holocaust.</p>
