Question Title

* 6. When the Museum opens in 2016, which of these proposed exhibitions might you most want to visit?

Central Hall conveying the broad African American experience, with portraits, pictures, programs and exhibitions exploring both well-known and little-known moments and achievements in black history.

The Slavery and Freedom Gallery will take America’s founding documents, with their promise of equality and liberty – and contrast them with the harsh, all too brutal realities of life as an enslaved African American.

The Segregation Gallery will take you from the post-Reconstruction period through the Jim Crow era and the Civil Rights Movement to 1968 – the year Dr. King was assassinated.

The 1968 and Beyond Gallery will explore the impact of African American struggles on human rights movements around the world and the current state of race relations beyond black and white.
