And I just remembered that there was a time before people didn't want to see what was really going on (without making a general comparison here, just the fact that it's so easy to look into another direction):


LIFE photographer Margaret Bourke-White was with Gen. George Patton's troops when they liberated the Buchenwald concentration camp. Forty-three thousand people had been murdered there. Patton was so outraged he ordered his men to march German civilians through the camp so they could see with their own eyes what their nation had wrought.
