The most important lesson of the Holocaust


The Holocaust taught the world countless lessons: about the dangers of hate and indifference, the importance of taking action, and the fragility of democracy.

For the past 20 years, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum has been teaching these lessons to millions of people, and we will continue to make sure Holocaust memory shapes the world for generations to come.

Help us mark the Museum's 20th anniversary by telling us what you think is the most important lesson of the Holocaust.
