Miscellaneous media from the museum opening
Here are some treats I didn’t get a chance to put into yesterday’s post.
In yesterday’s post, I mentioned in passing that a group of Neo-Nazis showed up to protest the museum opening. Well, here they are on the corner of Harms Road and Golf Road in Skokie

Musical entertainment was provided by Isreali violinist Miri Ben-Ari, also known as “the hip-hop violinist”. Here’s a video of one of the songs she performed.
The Soul Children of Chicago also performed at the opening ceremony.
Last but not least, it took me a while to realize I could record video on my dinky digital camera. I figured it out just in time, though, and managed to catch the end of Bill Clinton’s speech.
