Located at the site of the 1960 Greensboro sit-ins where young Black students peacefully protested segregated lunch counters, it preserves this pivotal moment. The museum offers exhibits, educational programs, and artifacts that explore the struggle for racial equality and social justice, aiming to inspire ongoing efforts for equality and human rights. It serves as a reminder of the importance of nonviolent protest and the progress achieved through collective action.
