I have seldom been so impacted The reverberations will be stunning and historic, from where I sit. The rawness of each speaker came through. The personal, the national, the global implications of Ferguson were brilliantly spread before me in the language of heart and soul. Artists, writers, poets, musicians, mothers and fathers pierced my numbness as preachers, politicians, and lawmakers could not. The videos were spot on, thoughtfully conceived under the pressure of time. Thank You is not sufficient to the Staff of the Museum...or to the 3 women who went through long hours of labor birthing the Production. As soon as possible, PLEASE POST when the film will be shown on Seattle TV or when we can purchase it for replay.

Every time Ive taken my kids there, their are not African American Childrens area. Hoping they will showcase some african American Childrens books and items that were used long ago and today to interest more families and have more family friendly exibits.

Thank you for providing this opportunity to learn more about how the past has shaped the present. I appreciated hearing the stories spoken, seeing pictures in the timeline. I wonder if there is any way to recreate the smell of oppression?

1floor of works important to the Pacific Northwest African American population. Well laid out. Gave me insight on issues I did not understand completely.

Relaxed, two room display from WWII ration cards...Needs some art, outside is Jimmi Hendrix park, go three blocks East & dogs go leash free!

Jennifer Wenzel

Heavy on wordy displays, which are hard for kids to get into. But some displays were really inviting. Storytime was wonderful!

A great source of history of African Americans in Seattle. Also a place for positivity for the Central District community.

A bit small but has some great history. Very important link to Seattle heritage and culture.
