This site commemorates the sacrifices in the Civil Rights struggles from 1954 to 1968, and then through today. It builds from racial discrimination to religious and gender bias today. It will make the visitor think and ponder big issues.

Worth popping quickly into the Memorial Centre (2$ pp) to watch a short 15 min presentation on all of the slightly lesser known individuals commemorated on the stone table first for those not experts in the history. In general, I found the rest of the Centre a bit... More

A visit here should be taken at a slow pace to absorb what this museum represents in our history. An annual visit would be good to remind ourselves of what is represented here.

It brought history alive! The staff were so friendly - asking us where we came from, why we were there, what did we think of it etc. Our son now lives in Birmingham with his lovely wife so we will be regular visitors from the UK.
