Viewer Comments

  • I learned a lot that I haven't learned in textbooks.
  • Great exhibition of the beautiful air of optimism that persisted despite the struggles.
  • Wonderful exhibit. The stories make the unfathomable a reality.
  • What a wonderful testimony to those great heroes. They overcame the worst life had to offer and embraced the gift of life. They built new lives contributing to a world that turned their back on them.
  • What a reminder of the delicate balance of freedom.
  • Poignant, Relevant, Revealing.
  • It should be a permanent exhibit!
