The foundation's plans are now almost entirely educational. Talks have begun on making videos about genocide that would include interviews with survivors of the Cambodian and Rwandan atrocities as well as the Holocaust. The larger issue, Greenberg said, is "racism and violence."
Greenberg said the foundation was seeking to make its Web site, www.vhf.org, multilingual in an effort to provide teaching materials to educators abroad. Other educational efforts have already begun or are imminent, including an English-language Web exhibition for students 11 to 14 that highlights testimonies from survivors who were children during the Holocaust.
Fried, the foundation's community relations manager, said that as many as 500,000 students in the United States, mostly in high school, had seen a documentary or some of the visual histories made available by the foundation. About one million students abroad, mostly in Europe, have seen the testimonies or documentaries, he said.
Many of the Holocaust survivors are quite old now, Spielberg said, because at the time the concentration camps were liberated the remaining prisoners were not especially young. "You have to remember they killed the children first, the children and the old," he said. "Those who could work were kept alive."
