London Museum Shows Churchill's Role in World War II Famine That Killed Millions

An artist has installed a video work at the National Portrait Gallery in London examining British Prime Minister Winston Churchill's responsibility for the 1943 Bengal famine, which killed 2–3 million people. The work brings a historical debate into public view. Instead of declaring who was right, it presents documents and firsthand accounts and lets viewers think. The gallery's decision whether to keep it or remove it will show how Britain wants its own history told.
