Moving Forward Together

History Moves Us Forward signifies the fusion of NCRM's rich historical narrative with the urgent demands of today. Rooted in the wisdom of yesteryears and fueled by contemporary urgency, the museum calls on visitors, benefactors, and collaborators to actively shape a future steeped in equity and justice.

"Our campaign epitomizes the dynamic nature of the National Civil Rights Museum. It's not merely about preserving artifacts; it's about confronting the challenges of our time with historical insight. History Moves Us Forward is an ongoing commitment to the pursuit of justice and equality," stated museum president Dr. Russ Wigginton.

Building upon the legacy of messages like Power of Place, which honored the fact that the museum is located on the hallowed ground where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated, and The Greatest Civil Rights Story Ever Told, History Moves Us Forward  marks a new chapter, guiding the museum's future, which remains deeply rooted in education, health equity, and economic empowerment.

Looking ahead, NCRM eagerly anticipates engaging in global conversations surrounding civil and human rights, further amplifying its mission on an international scale. We invite the leaders of tomorrow to join us on the front lines of global discourse, helping us move history forward. Together, let us move forward in the pursuit of justice and equality for all.
