    A small yet powerful museum that started the history of my people from the Pyramids. The receptionist was very polite and professional. The Museum provided us with a lot of information especially as a visual supplement to what we read.

    The Museum is "Totally" amazing! The Curator, Robert, is very knowledgeable and willing to share his expertise. You must come support this great work. The collection is extensive, well preserved, and displayed meticulously.

    I originally knew of Crispus Attucks because of the athletics program, but the museum contains much more. The curator offers tours by appointment and does a wonderful job of tying together multiple areas of history and culture.

    Enlightening and bought a perspective to our students that they really need to have. With such a great resource here in Indianapolis, I recommend all schools and all ages to go and experience the information that is necessary for our future leaders to be properly educated to be successful now, and for the near future. The instructor was phenomenal!! I plan to personally take my children to spend quite some time there soaking up as much as possible.

    This was a great experience from the time I walked in, till I walked out! This museum is a MUST see for everyone. Its very clean, organized, and very informative. It's a lot of black history in one place. Great job curator!

    I took my 7th grader and 8th grader here for a black history lesson today and the place was very well rounded and detailed. The host was nice and had a lot of knowledge to share with us

    Was able to visit the museum today with some of our teens from church. Had an amazing time. Was not aware such great history was in our backyard. Mr. Chester was very welcoming and knowledgeable. I recommend everyone come out and see what this museum has to offer.

    Top 5 museum experience I’ve had so far. The museum is very descriptive and you will learn something new I promise you. I came from Omaha Nebraska and anticipated checking the place out for four months. My wait was well worth it! Love all the exhibits! Support your black museums
