PARTICIPATE: The African American Museum at the England Manor Tour
Note: Confirmation Required
The African American Museum at the England Manor is a historic home museum that focuses on the African American experience. Sylvia England, the founder of the museum, tells her and her ancestors’ story from their time in Africa through the present day. The museum features exhibits and artifacts that chronicle the various stages of the African American experience, emphasizing the experiences of Sylvia and her kin. There are rooms dedicated to Africa and the slave trade, the Underground Railroad, 40 acres and a mule, the Great Migration, and African American culture and experiences in the present day.
This museum aims to allow individuals who have been systematically stifled to have a voice and tell their stories. We encourage all who visit to sit down and reflect on their own experience and their family.
