The letter refers to a 1919 missive from the genocidal despot, where he describes his hatred of Jews and calls for their complete removal.The family also posed for a photo with SWC dean and founder Rabbi Marvin Hier.According to the museum, this is not Jolie's first visit, and she "is a longtime supporter and friend of the Simon Wiesenthal Center." But this was the first time she brought her children to experience the museum - described as "a human rights laboratory and educational center dedicated to challenging visitors to understand the Holocaust in both historic and contemporary contexts and confront all forms of prejudice and discrimination in our world today." Jolie has long been an active and outspoken civil and human rights activist. She hosted a special screening of her 2012 film, In the Land of Blood and Honey, about the Bosnian-Serbian conflict, at the US Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s son is taking his education to new heights! The First They Killed My Father director shared that her and Brad’s nine-year-old son Knox is learning how to fly planes. After a scene in the new ITV special, The Queen’s Green Planet showcased the 42-year-old star piloting and landing a small plane in the Namibian desert – the mother-of-six opened up about the hobby that she shares with her son. “I love being up in the air,” Angelina, who got her pilot’s license in December 2004, told People. “I love the freedom. Knox is now learning how to fly." "It makes me crazy happy to see him discover it,” Angelina, who also shares children, Maddox, 16, Pax, 14, Zahara, 13, Shiloh, 11, and Knox’s twin sister, Vivienne with her ex-husband, continued. “He still needs help with the pedals, but won’t for long.” While her and her children work collectively with forest conservation work – they each have their own special interests. Angelina and Brad’s oldest sons Paddox and Max are expressing an interest in the world of film. Pax had a small role as a still photographer on the set of First They Killed My Father, while his older brother served as an executive producer. Angie previously told HOLA! USA that having her two boys work beside her was a “meaningful experience.” The Maleficent actress also opened up about her children's passion for social advocacy. "My daughter [Shiloh] has gone to refugee camps," Angelina said. "Whenever I go on humanitarian trips, they want to go with me. I never force them. I want them to respect people of diversity." Brad and Angelina’s 11-year-old daughter has also remained passionate about wildlife conservation. Last year, she traveled with her mother to Namibia – where she was honored with the N/a'an ku sê Foundation's Shiloh Wildlife Sanctuary.

The actress explained in an interview with InStyle that the pressure to conform has been made worse by social media.She expressed hopes her children would learn how to be themselves instead of allowing social media dictate their likes and dislikes.'My children don't really do a lot of social media,' she explained. 'I'm hoping they'll have room to figure out what they like before they're told by a bunch of other people what they should like or how they're being perceived. My mom used to say when I was little, "Let me see your soul." 'That was her thing. Whenever I'd get upset or something, she'd say, "Let me see your soul." What it meant was, "Show me you. Are you mad? Let me see." I've never really talked about that. I think, I hope anyway, that's how I'm raising my children: Put what’s inside you forward and find you, figure out who you are.' She also said the older she gets, the more she sees the resemblance between herself and her late mother, Marcheline Bertrand.'I look in the mirror and I see that I look like my mother, and that warms me,' she told the website. 'I also see myself aging, and I love it because it means I'm alive—I'm living and getting older.'Don't love having a random dark spot from a pregnancy, sure. I see my flaws. But what I see that I like isn't about a structure or an appearance. It's more that I see my family in my face. I see my age.'Things have certainly changed for Angelina, who admitted to rebelliously using a sharpie to dye her hair as a teenager.'I was a bit of a tomboy. And then I was a bit of a punk. Nowadays it's very popular to dye your hair blue, for example. In my day you bleached it and used a Sharpie.'The humanitarian, who works with the UN, is still in the process of finalizing her divorce from Brad Pitt; seen in 2015. +9 The humanitarian, who works with the UN, is still in the process of finalizing her divorce from Brad Pitt; seen in 2015.As a girl, Angelina says she was never one to play with makeup.But now, she enjoys watching her adopted daughter Zahara, 13, do just that with her friends.'I buy a lot, especially for Z [Zahara].

The Tomb Raider star turned director and humanitarian, is currently single after splitting from Brad Pitt in September 2016.In a recent interview Angelina said she finds a 'real pleasure' in the fact she rarely gets any time to herself and wouldn't change things for the world.Asked how she relaxes, the 42-year-old told British glossy Hello: 'I really don't [relax]. I'm one of those people. It drives me nuts when people tell me to relax.'I think a lot of moms don't really rest.

I wouldn't trade it at all.'When it comes to raising her children the By the Sea star believes the most important lesson she can teach them is to value others, as she thinks all the bad things in the world stem from selfishness and a lack of empathy. Asked what she teaches her children, she said: 'To value others. If you live life and walk around thinking of yourself and your own needs and desires then not only is it a selfish life, but it ends up being quite an unhappy life, I imagine. 'And that's where everything goes wrong,' she continued.'The wars and hostility, the ugliness and inhumanity in this world comes from this lack of being able to have real empathy for someone else.'If you can value others, I think things naturally balance out in your own life. When you don't live with ignorant perceptions and that smallness, you open up in a beautiful way.'Next year the busy actress/director/producer is set to reprise her role as dark fairy godmother Maleficent in the sequel to the 2014 Disney flick. Additionally, Jolie will be both a voice-actress and a producer in the animated feature The One and Only Ivan, currently in pre-production.

I remember she had a girlfriend over one night, and they said they were going to do dress-up and did I have any make-up? 'I gave them my make-up, but I wear one colour red, and I have black eyeliner and mascara—I have the most boring make-up kit. And my daughter and I are different shades of brown.'
