Why
a Museum?
The purpose of the
museum is to tell the story of African Americans in all their permutations:
family life, Civil Rights movement, arts and entertainment, inventions,
sports, medicine, architecture, politics, religion, law, technology,
etc.. Our mission statement:
“Dedicated to preserve, maintain and educate the public on the
history of African-American ancestors in the State of Louisiana and
