## Resource

The Canadian Museum for Human Rights is under fire for its new “Nakba” exhibit, accused of being one-sided and factually flawed by critics and even a resigning board member. While the museum once navigated controversy with sensitivity and change, this exhibit has reignited debate over historical representation — especially as it centers Palestinian displacement while omitting Jewish experiences and key context. Gail Asper, whose father helped build the museum, warns it’s damaging the institution’s credibility. The CEO defends the exhibit as intentionally focused on Palestinian voices, comparing it to past exhibits on refugees and trafficking victims — though the museum says it’s reviewing feedback without promising changes amid rising antisemitism concerns.
