Elevation Hotel to Open in Montgomery, Alabama in 2025 - AFAR

"Housed in an 11,000-square-foot space on the site of a former slave warehouse, this museum uses original slave auction ads, holograms that tell stories of enslaved people, and interactive displays to trace the evolution of racial violence and systemic inequality. Exhibits include artifacts from the Jim Crow era, material on wrongful convictions, and data-driven installations that connect historical injustices to ongoing patterns of racial inequality." - Bailey Berg
