In the Tolerancenter, visitors focus on the major issues of intolerance that are part of daily life.
Exhibits include:
The Point of View Diner
 A recreation of a 1950's diner, red booths and all, that "serves" a menu of controversial topics on video jukeboxes. It uses the latest cutting edge technology to relay the overall message of personal responsibility. Following scenarios focusing on drunk driving and hate speech, this interactive exhibit allows visitors to input their opinions on what they have seen and question relevant characters. The results are then instantly tabulated. |
 The Millenium Machine
This high-tech "time machine," uses interactivity to educate visitors with a series of human rights abuses throughout the world, such as the exploitation of women and children, the threat of terrorism, and the plight of refugees and political prisoners. The Millenium Machine then engages visitors into finding solutions, showing that while humans have the potential to bring about these problems, they also have the potential to put a stop to them.
