The National Civil Rights Museum At The Lorraine Motel Memphis Tennessee (photo tour)

in #mlk7 years ago

Back in April of 2016 I went to Memphis Tennessee for my sister @juju88's birthday with our mom! One place she wanted to visit while we were there was the National Civil Rights Museum!

Today is Martin Luther King Jr Day here in the U.S. and i thought it would be fitting to share my pictures from inside the museum!

These are just a condensed version of all the photo's I took inside!

This was the end of the tour in The Lorraine. Next we headed across the street where they had all the evidence against James Earl Ray on display.

I would highly suggest visiting the National Civil Rights Museum if you are ever in Memphis!! It's something i'll never forget visiting!!!!!!

Thanks for looking! I'm glad I remembered I had these to share for MLK JR day!

Sort:  

What an appropriate time to share these pictures!

Did you eat at any BBQ places while out there?

Unfortunately we didn't! But we did have some of that famous Gus's chicken!! We are going there again in a month or so and will be having us some bbq then!!

I'd say it was a blown opportunity - but it looks like you'll have a chance to redeem yourself.

Not that I went to a lot of BBQ place out there - but I wasn't too crazy about it.

...thanks for this timely post...I'll definitely try to keep a visit to this place in mind....
