Black History 101 Mobile Museum Tour: Wednesday 8-26-20

According to an article in Ebony February 28, 2017, “After returning from the historic 1995 Million Man March in Washington, D.C., el-Hakim became inspired to take his private collection of then 500 artifacts on the road. He started displaying the items around Detroit at various community meetings. His goal? Bring folks up to speed on the history that’s often omitted from textbooks.

When visitors come face to face with the artifacts, el-Hakim says he hopes they will walk away inspired to conduct some of their own research. He leaves them with one question: What side of history do you want to be on?”
