New mobile museum travels to Port Huron to discuss essential part of our history What makes the exhibit so powerful is the horror of the imagery
PORT HURON, Mich. – A new mobile museum made its way across Metro Detroit with a look at an essential part of our history.
Local 4 visited the latest stop of the Black History 101 Mobile Museum in Port Huron Friday (June 16) to show how impactful the exhibit really is.
What makes the exhibit so powerful is the horror of the imagery. It’s raw, and it’s tough to look at.
It’s part of our history, and some people are working hard to pretend it didn’t happen by trying to keep it from being taught.
We watched the exhibit’s impact on people of all ages, which made it so important to see firsthand.
Watch the video above for the full story .
