I enjoyed this museum. It is starting to get run down, but still well worth the visit. The gift shop is basically empty. Due to my age, and where I live, I was not really aware of what the civil rights movement was all about. Having gone to the museum, I have learned more. And I appreciate that fact. And... More

A powerful history of the courageous citizens of Savannah who fought for their equal rights. The exhibits are well presented and full of artifacts to enhance the story that is told. I highly recommend this to all who want to learn the history of this city.

You come away with a much deeper appreciation of the historic contribution of Savannah's black population. Focusing on the civil rights movement is an ideal way to juxtapose the infamous segregation of the south with the perseverance of the black population in turning against this injustice.

Very educational. Nice museum. They have moved into a larger, nicer building. The museum will give you some important information about the civit rights movement as it pertains to the local area.

Savannah has a pivotal role in the Civil Rts Movement and some of its history is highlighted in this interactive Museum. I'd recommend it, especially in conjunction with an African American History Tour, like that lead by Dr. Jamal Toure, or by the Beach Institute, or another independent company. You'll get more out of the Museum when in context with... More

While adults may find this interesting, my kids did not. The only part they liked was the food counter and the... More

This museum gives a good sense of the history of the civil rights struggle and history in Savannah. My wife and I had a brief tour with Troy Lance who was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. He was a one man show while we were there covering the admission, administration and touring. The museum has lots of historic photos and we watched... More

A museum dedicated to the preservation of that which most people would rather not see, revisit or discuss, and the only rave reviews are from African-Americans and guilty white liberals who give it a thumbs up simply because it's black. I'm sixty years of age and nobody I know-- white or black-- needs to go to a museum to see... More

Focuses narrowly on the movement to integrate Savannah. Museum guide was informative and helpful. Exhibits are a bit worn and dated.
