Holocaust Memorial Museum, marks its 25th anniversary, it continues to receive artifacts, such as a letter handwritten on a yellow scrap of paper. Frank, then 11 and known as Misa, is alive because, unlike his brother John, then 16, Frank did not limp. “Into eternity, Vilma.”So, the museum presents human nature’s noblest as well as vilest manifestations. Explaining the Holocaust,” Peter Hayes says the subject “continues to resist comprehension.” Resist but not defy. The museum of human nature remains what it would prefer not to be: pertinent to understanding not only the past but also the present.
