There is actually more history here in this museum than what is actually in Atlanta in The King Center. Just one problem, this exhibit focused a lot of James Earl Ray.

The attraction has added interactive kiosks along the walkway. This site is where the story comes alive for visitors at the National Civil Rights Museum. It is where those who were alive then come to remember what they fought for. It is where those who weren’t born yet learn why. It is under renovation but still a great deal located...

This was disappointing in that it was focused primarily on Martin Luther King's death.

Incredible to see the history. Also is very haunting being at the place of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
It is moving and somewhat horrifying to stand in the spot where Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. was murdered. An important historical site. The adjacent museum is devoted to chronicling the civil rights movement and the progress that has been made.
The site is under renovations at the moment, so it's hard to imagine what is to come, but right now the museum relies heavily upon video clips, timelines and photos. Not much interactive opportunity. Regardless, the theme and the information is sobering and important. It will be interesting to visit again once the renovations are made.

I agree the location of the museum is great, and...

The museum is very informative and because it is in the rooming house where James Earl Ray was staying it was very authentic.
You can spend a few hrs here very intresting teaches you to value life and to fight for what you believe in. Raies some interesting theorys about dr m luther kings assaination well worth a visit
I felt really old after I left the museum, but it is a moving experience. I am a very proud American of Irish heritage and I am humbled by the people honored at this museum. So much occurred and so much has changed and this stands as a beacon for all to see what can be accomplished with perserverance and...
