The Making of A Museum: How the Lorraine Motel Became the National Civil Rights Museum

From the words of the Lorraine Motel owners' daughter, Carolyn Champion Bailey, to those of the Lorraine Civil Rights Museum Foundation, museum founders and their descendants tell the story of the fight to gain the Lorraine Motel property to preserve the site where Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated. From tragedy to triumph, the National Civil Rights Museum is the first African American History museum dedicated to telling the story of the Civil Rights Movement.
