Day Forty Five

Today we visited the National Civil Rights Museum. It is located at The Lorraine Motel, where Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated. I spent the morning surrounded by throngs of school children, reading about the history of the Civil Rights Movement. The Museum is a must see in order to understand the incredible amount of bravery and sacrifice it took on the parts of so many people to secure equal treatment.
