Excellent museum of African American history with a focus on Little Rock and the state of Arkansas. Interactive and mutimedia exhibits, historical artifacts, and seasonal displays tell the stories. I especially enjoyed newspaper and participant memorbilia from the 1963 March on Washington, and a video describing how federal housing, urban renewal, and highway funds were applied to reinforce racial segregation and upend a thriving Black business district. There are chilling displays about local lynchings and the Elaine Massacre of 1919. More hopeful displays detail the continuous Black contributions to literature, music, sports, agriculture, science, and education. Highly recommended.
