National Center for Civil and Human Rights

More info

Believes in justice and dignity for everyone, everywhere. We exist to help people tap into their own power to advance freedom, equality, and inclusion. Through immersive exhibitions, dynamic events, and community-driven programs, the Center connects history to the present, helping individuals and institutions move from reflection to action. Imagined by civil rights icons Evelyn Lowery and Ambassador Andrew Young, and brought to life by former Atlanta Mayor Shirley Franklin, the Center was founded to honor the legacy of the U.S. Civil Rights Movement and connect it to global human rights struggles today. We opened our doors in 2014 on land donated by The Coca-Cola Company, steps away from the Georgia Aquarium and World of Coca-Cola.
