This is personal
As I head off to the Kigali Genocide Memorial this morning, I’ll be thinking about Officer Johns, his family, and the Museum. The outpouring of support after the terrible events stands as a testament to the Musuem’s incredible work, and the shooting illuminates the importance of the Museum’s mission to remember the Holocaust and prevent contemporary genocide. The article above, “This is Personal,” captures a unique aspect of the Museum and the way it touches and changes so many lives.
For those wishing to make a contribution to Officer Johns’ Family, you can send a check to the Museum (address below), payable to “USHMM, Officer Johns’ Family.”
