Photos depict plight in Burma

WASHINGTON — Washington’s Holocaust Memorial Museum has been highlighting the plight of Burma’s beleaguered Rohingya Muslims this week.

An exhibition of stark, blackand-white images of the stateless Rohingya is being projected at night onto the museum’s external walls.

American photographer Greg Constantine’s work combines portraits of Rohingya with pictures of the scorched settlements they were forced to flee after a deadly outbreak of sectarian violence last summer that left more than 100,000 confined to camps.

The museum commemorates the genocide against the Jews in World War II. Part of its mission is to prevent further atrocities around the world.
