center for civil and human rights印象
-
A must see while visiting Atlanta. A lot is packed at the center, but combining history of civil rights and bridging to human rights issues heighten visitors' awareness on all the ills of social issues around us.

The museum is very well made. The information is given in many different ways so it's hard to get bored. It's sometimes heartbreaking but also something you need to have seen and be aware of. It's important that history doesn't repeat itself

This was our first visit. We had some friends visiting from out of town. The exhibits are absolutely amazing & powerful, particularly the lunch counter exhibit. You sit at a lunch counter, put on headphones & for about 1 minute 45 seconds you hear & feel what it was like to be an African American at the lunch counter in a southern all white restaurant. The multi media exhibits are incredible. Be sure to change the channels on the TV at the entrance to the exhibit to listen to some incredibly stupid southern segregationists speak. It is amazing. The whole exhibit took us about 2 hours. Do not miss this special place.

Excellent and informative about a very emotional subject. I found out a lot and some things I wasn't aware of. I would recommend that you take at least two to three hours to do justice to all of the sections. The on going human rights exhibit was excellent and addressed issues that may be uncomfortable for some but deserve to be aired

Very well set up, reasonably priced, informative, sometimes harrowing, always thought provoking. Leave your prejudices at the door and immerse yourself in a world of scarily recent history on floors 1 & 2, then perhaps take a moment to pause and discover on the third floor what discrimination we have have in our world right now that might seem equally as abhorrent in another 60 years time. Highly recommended for anyone mature enough to understand. My only concern was that an American school tour was allowed to roam freely around the exhibits without having been briefed on how to behave appropriately in a space which should be reserved for reflection and consideration. Neither their teachers nor museum staff reigned the boisterous behaviour in, which was a pity - particularly for the elderly lady in the room who was clearly able to remember events like this first hand.A must do whilst in Atlanta!

Don't miss this one! Scored a Groupon for this newish ATL museum and am so glad I did. I had no idea what to expect. While the topics of civil and human rights can be depressing this museum presented the information in very engaging ways that will appeal to visitors of all ages. The whole thing was really well done. The human rights exhibit was informative and very current.

It looks small from the outside but it is huge inside and has a lot of great things for you to experience and understand the need for Civil and Human rights

the centre is set out to explain the history and subsequent events that led to the antisegregation laws in the USA. Dealing with Martin Luther King jnf., bussing, the marches, demonstrations etc. the exhibits finish with examples of violations of civil rights in today's world-really excellent. Informative and yet sobering experience.Well worth the visit. We had just seen the film "Selma" and thus brought it all to life.

This new museum in the center of Atlanta is well done depicting many of the events in the civil rights struggle in our country and in other areas around the world. The day we visited there were many school classes which made for a crowded visit and quite a bit of noise, but it was good to see them there. You could spend a whole day here if you wanted to read all the writing, listen to all of the recordings and watch all of the video. Do not miss sitting at the lunch counter for your most memorable experience.

This was definitely a great tour. There were all types of people visiting. It doesn't not just encompass civil rights of blacks but the rights of the LGBT, humans, and woman rights. The tour if done right is a self-guided tour that last 1.5-2 hours. They have some great exhibits. One exhibit they have is where you sit at a counter as if you are participating in a sit-in. With the headphones on, it simulates the experience. This will be life changing. It is definitely worth $10 and honestly should cost more.
