I loved my visit. I go every time I come to Atlanta. I want to alert the bookstore of the quality of their pencils. I bought several for my students and the lead in the pencils just crumbles and never sharpens. Please consider changing the vendor that makes your pencils. They are ripping you off and giving a bad impression on the store. Especially the blue ones.

It was an amazing experience that should be shared with anyone willing to participate. The docents are wonderful. The exhibits are interactive and powerfully relevant. The entire design is clearly methodical and invokes feelings from every range. This is a must see for EVERYONE, regardless of race, color, sex etc.

Simply amazing. I was stunned my entire way through the exhibits and have thought about it ever since. A powerful display of some our nation's darkest history and an inspiring presentation of how we can move forward better than ever.

10 stars. Full of knowledge very tastefully done. The video that you sit in the bus seats is very powerful. Also try sitting at the counter with your palms on the table. WOW, if that doesn't get your feeling racing do it as many times as you can. Very moving. This museum really gets you thinking.

Highly recommend visiting this fine establishment and reading all it has to offer. My only negative was the mirror room where people defined themselves based on one thing i.e. white, black, lgbt, or what have you. Perhaps it's more personal perspective, but I think it's rather odd to boil someone down to one facet of identity when in fact we're so much more than just one word. I feel it's far more complex and beautiful, something I felt the rest of the museum aimed to highlight.
