Highly recommended for the whole family.
The exhibition highlights the importance of photography, amateur and professional, in documenting the Birth of the Civil Rights Movement. The photographs are emotionally moving and convey so much of what was felt by those who experienced History as it happened that I was brought to tears. Thank you for sharing these experiences and knowledge with us.
