Join Dr. David Pilgrim, director of the Jim Crow Museum of Racist Memorabilia for a free lecture. This lecture introduces the audience to the creation, mission, and work of the Jim Crow Museum—the nation’s largest collection of publicly accessible racist artifacts. The museum uses objects of intolerance to teach tolerance and to help create a more just society. A major goal of the Jim Crow Museum is to get people to talk openly, honestly, intelligently, and civilly about race, race relations, racism, and other isms. The focus is mainly academic—the tools are ugly relics of the past.
