Collection Info
The Museum's collections include a wide variety of materials related to the struggle for civil rights both nationally and locally. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voters Rights Act of 1965 were passed after a great deal of national debate and social unrest, and are seen as one of President Kennedy's enduring legacies. Both Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Senator Robert F. Kennedy continued to fight for civil rights in the years after President Kennedy's death.
