BERLIN,
GERMANY - APRIL 04: Bill Glucroft, an American Jew living in Berlin, chats with
a journalist from his box in the “live exhibit” portion of the exhibition “The
Whole Truth - Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Jews . . . ” at the
Juedisches Museum (Jewish Museum) on April 4, 2013 in Berlin, Germany. The
exhibition presents every-day aspects of Jewish life, poses simple questions
answered with exhibits and challenges certain stereotypes. However its live
exhibit, which features a Jewish person who sits in a plastic enclosure open on
one side for several hours a day to answer visitors’ questions, has sparked
criticism from some Jewish groups. (Photo by Sean Gallup/Getty Images).

What does it say about Germany today that in order to see some Jews you’ve got to go to a museum?
