Auschwitz Scrapbooks

From boingboing comes this incredible story of a find that’s on display online at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. The officer’s photograph album shows pictures of officers at the largest death camp. boingboing’s headline reads “… the banality of evil,” referring to the juxtaposition of Nazi officers relaxing and having a good time while feet away people were starving and being put to death. I think it’s a very interesting juxtaposition we should all take note of.
