I Say British, You Say Jewish
Having toured the UK throughout 2024, this National Holocaust Museum exhibition returns home. I Say British, You Say Jewish delves into what it means to be two things at once. Looking at Jewish life from 1066, when Jews first came to Britain, to the present day, the display covers themes of identity, belonging and prejudice, and the realities and myths that surround those constructs. With flaps to lift, testimonies to hear and a virtual recreation of a Holocaust survivor’s 1930s living room in which to lounge, I Say… provides an interactive, fun and insightful way to explore a powerful topic.
Until 2025
