The museum pieces together a story that was totally invisible at the time of the centenary of the CIvil War in the early 1960s. This is an informative museum that starts with a brief background of Africans becoming enslaved and then African Americans military involvement in the civil war all the way to World War ll with a concentration on the civil war, it is very informative, and tells the story that many people never get to hear.
