At 1145 on Saturday morning April 3, 2004 a group of seven individuals
conducted a protest at the Florida Holocaust Museum in Saint Petersburg,
Florida. The protesters say they agree with the spirit of commemorating
the remembrance of the Nazi Holocaust; so why were they protesting the
museum? Well, they say they are protesting the hyprocrisy of the founding
of the museum by Walter Loebenberg who is the former president of Straight
Foundation. Further, they say, the museum has strong ties to others associated
with Straight. Former Straight board member Dr. Bruce Epstein and his
wife Amy are former directors of the museum. Melvin and Betty Sembler
have been long time board members of the Florida Holocaust Museum. The
full story of why these people are protesting the museum is here.
