I was moved to tears just watching the museum walkthrough and seeing the rooms that MLK and his group stayed in. I can only imagine how I would be, standing there in person.
@@pommie5093u must be a foundational black American because we are the only ones that feel that pain of Dr king's assassination. I feel the same way when I visited the White House😮😮😢 #ANGRY
I’m ashamed to say I never knew this was a museum. I live in Detroit so I’ve seen the real Rosa parks bus. I’ve been to MLKs church, grave, and home before but I’ve never been to the place he was assassinated. I do appreciate you going here and bringing my awareness to this place.
I was there back in December 2018 and I didn’t even know she was there. Honestly when I went there I didn’t really fully appreciate the museum and all of its content. I really wish I could go back and appreciate it so much more. I really regret that.
I mean, in 32 years, she could have found herself a job and an apartment. Instead, she’s chosen to sit on a street corner and protest. And for what? Because she was kicked out of the motel? If they had torn it down, she still would have been kicked out. The reason why Memphis has turned much of Union Street and the surrounding area into a museum district is because Beale Street is, well, what it is. It attracts petty crime, and sometimes more serious crime. I have been to Memphis more than once. I have friends that grew up and LEFT. It’s a pretty city, but it’s not somewhere to explore after dark unless you’re with your peeps.
Unfortunately this is apart of American history and all parts good, bad, and indifferent should be displayed. Im planning to take my liitle one here one day so that she can understand all Blessings and opportunities we are allowed now that not to long ago we didnt have and that you should never forget those that came before you. Im thankful that world i grew up in and the one she grows up in now is a totally different place. Thanks TCB!!
Thank you Jacob, I really appreciate your heart felt and respectable manner and kind narrative in this video, it shows me you are a very kind and fun human being.To make this video available to all to see those fateful moments in history. It brings tears to my eyes and a sensitive mind bogging understanding that I wish this was not real, but it did happen. Bro. Jacob you brought it to the fore front for us all to remember a little history of ourselves, no matter ones race. Thank you Brother Jacob, thank you!
I am so pleased you have visited and made a vlog on this very special place, It's so Important that certain point's In history are never forgotten, he did so much In his too short life. All the best to you Jacob.. XXX
I love how you explained things. I look forward to my trip next week on March 6(306) I will be celebrating my 30th birthday. This will be very meaningful
Hi Jacob 😃🖐🏼. I WAS TOTALLY wonderful for you to take Time out of your busy schedule to go to the Lorraine Hotel. Even though I wasn't there it's still very sobering for me today as it WAS when it first happened.thanks again.😃🖐🏼💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔.
6:08 while showing the room where he spent his last night you can hear MLK in the background saying “like anybody I wish I can live.. I’m not concerned about that now”
Thank you for sharing this. It’s so important to remember and see these horrible pieces of the past so that we don’t make these atrocities again. Well done, Jacob.
Just took my 8th grade students here on Friday. What a wonderful and educational trip. I’ve been several times. I live pretty close. I’m glad you enjoyed your time in Memphis. Such a cool place full of history!
Thanks for another great video Jacob. I like Adam the wood channel but I have to say I enjoy yours more because you give so much more info and with your own humor and personality that is so respectful in all your videos. I'd love to meet you one day.
Wow, I didn't know that the hotel that MLK Jr. was assassinated at had been preserved and made into a museum. Even the rooms he and his associates stayed have been preserved and where the shots that took MLK Jr. from us came from have been preserved too!Thanks so much for sharing this with us.
The Lorraine Motel is an excellent example of Googie architecture. Googie was a mid- 20th Century architectural style named after Googie's coffee shop in Los Angeles. Several famous Black artists such as Aretha Franklin and Cab Calloway stayed at the Lorraine Motel.
There are many wonderful Civil Rights museums around the South- Greensboro, Atlanta, Birmingham?, etc - plus I the North like Cincinnati ! Try to visit at least one of them.
Terrific video. I was in Memphis last October and visited the museum. Very moving and draining. I didn't remember seeing the protester; either that or I wasn't paying attention.
KKK had a good amount of power in its days. A group of people you wouldn't mess with. Today they're practically useless unless they want to get on the FBI radar.
Thank you so much for posting this! I have to write a paper on the Civil Rights Museum for a History class at The University of Memphis. I can't go to the actual museum because it's closed right now (due to the Coronavirus). You have been a lifesaver!! I enjoyed your video so much that I will definitely be going to the museum once it opens back up! Hoping to take some of my children with me. It would be a great learning experience! Thanks again.
To think those days weren't even that long ago... That woman on the corner kind of has a point, I think. Sadly I'm sure nothing will ever come of it. I find it pretty ghastly that it's the actual assassination site turned museum but it was a very interesting one either way. A lot to reflect on today, thanks for the great video.
It’s a museum for a reason. It is a very stark reminder of what happened. And people STILL choose to ignore that. And to be honest? Having been on a ghost tour, we rode the trolley right past it, looked over, and until it clicked in my brain, it’s so unassuming, it’s shocking to realize that this little motel in downtown Memphis is where a great leader had his life cut short by absolute trash.
YOU MISSED AN IMPORTANT INFORMATION. TELL US WHERE THE SHOT WAS FIRED FROM. IS THAT AN OTHER MOTEL ? IS THAT A HOUSE ? IS THAT A COMMERCIAL BUILDING ? WE DON'T KNOW. YOUR SHOW IS INCOMPLETE.
He literally showed where he got shot and from where.

I'm so grateful for my ancestors... fighting for me and others to live the life that we are able to live now. there's work that still needs to be done, but we've came a long way.
Good video. I recently did one on the trail from Selma to Montgomery. Tons of rich history in that area of the country. Haven’t made it to Memphis yet though.
Just watched a video about Ida B. Wells, that was really excellent the other night and there she is pictured on the outside of the Museum of Civil Rights!!!! Wow!!! That's awesome!!!!
Just visiting this place it's give you a difference perspective on the struggle of black people in America I think you should take your children to show them apart of history
You have to do the Historic Hampton House in Miami I did videos there and I play piano over there that’s where a lot of the black musicians and political leaders used to be in Miami Florida
I am Canadian and as much as yes we had/have racism (had as in back in the day..not meaning its went away) I know very little of the black panther's and the KKK..honestly all I know about the panther's no lie: the black hats(berets?), that Tupac's mom was one and well what little was shown on Forrest Gump..So why does the flag say free Huey? And the Klan isnt worth my energy to type anything about 🤷♀️..
you should definitely do some research & reading on the Black Panther Party! I recently did a research project on their Free Breakfast for School Children Program for my college history class & quite honestly, I learned so much about them through my research that I was never taught in school... and I’m american! I could go on and on about how great they truly were, but I’ll give just a quick summary of what their main goal was. The Panthers ultimately fought against police brutality within the black community & truly fought hard to protect it as well! Some people even say that they paved the way for the Black Lives Matter Movement as they’re fighting for almost the same thing. However, they didn’t only focus on that. As time progressed, they began doing other things for their community like starting the Free Breakfast for School Children Program (that I researched) which provided the kids in their community with breakfast before school since the government wasn’t helping them out. They basically took matters into their own hands as they didn’t want the children in their communities to go to school on empty stomachs anymore. I didn’t do much research on why this happened, but Huey Newton (one of the founders of the BPP) was arrested for allegedly killing a police officer. However, I do know that that was a very controversial case & am not sure about the details.
Behind the Virgil of Jacqueline Smith is the dormitory of Memphis Fire Station #2. That is where the shot came from that killed MLK, not the rooming house that JERay was staying at. The Dorm. can be seen in the first video of YOU, the Carpetbagger.
Wow This is sad I knew about all this growing up but king actually was still alive before he got to the hospital. The doctors could have saved his life but no they didn't even try 🙏 plus the ambulance took their time getting to him unfortunately as they do now just 😭
soooooooooooooo whats that ladies deal?????????? shes not like a racist right its not like that shes not on the other side its just something about the museum as a structure or what????

God Bless Dr. King.
The rapist and communists? Not to mention a racist.
When I visited the Civil Rights museum I was touched and moved to tears during my walk through.. Very moving place to visit.
You should visit the liberty and justice for all section of the Henry Ford museum in Dearborn Michigan, better take a box of Kleenex
I was moved to tears just watching the museum walkthrough and seeing the rooms that MLK and his group stayed in. I can only imagine how I would be, standing there in person.

I went to the 50th and didn’t make it this year 😢 I highly recommend it. They honor it every year.
That looks like an amazing museum. It is an important part of history we should all remember and never let happen again. Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you for stopping by to commemorate Dr King. Please come back to Memphis. There is so much history here.
What a sad piece of history. Thanks for a memory jog on a few things forgotten about the civil rights march. Keep Safe❤Keep Well❤

Such a sad day for the history books and sad for America!. RIP Mr King.
Thank you for this video. God Bless Dr King and may he RIP
It still blows my mind that something like this could happen/ be allowed and go on for centuries. Such a sad piece of American history.
32 years on a protest that didn't work? Part of me admires her dedication, the other part of me questions her sanity.
yea like go home it didnt work and never will
I mean, in 32 years, she could have found herself a job and an apartment.

She wasted her life. She didn't do anything to help other humans. She must definitely have mental health challenges.

Thank you for sharing this. It’s so important to remember and see these horrible pieces of the past so that we don’t make these atrocities again. Well done, Jacob.
Thank you for sharing. This museum is actually on my bucket list.
I can't visit something like this knowin how bad they were tormented during the civil Rights jus brings tears to my eyes
A very heartfelt video. Thank you for sharing all with us. 💓
✌️ we all can do better and bring peace, don't let his words be forgotten.
Thank you for the tour and this video
I was there in June and it was packed. One could faint and not fall down and be kept moving along by the crowd.
Another great informal video !!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍

Thank You for showing this
I went here last week and it was very emotional. I urge everyone to visit here one day.
Very appropriate for today.
I LOVE UR CHANEL
Thank you for sharing. What a waste of such a leader, orator and civil rights activist. We need you now MLK.
Never a waste when he made a huge impact, my love. He made changes and even in his death caused an uproar to this day and for many years to come.
I believe King's vision lives on in people like Bernie Sanders
Mjlovechild15 very true maybe bad use of words. He lives on in everyone.
I was young when I visited this maybe like 5 or 6 and it seriously left a HUGE impact on me! It really touches you
Every American school child should come here.

Great video my friend! I visited here 3 days ago! Super awesome memorial! I recommend anyone visiting the state to attend this museum
Thank you for this Vid Jacobagger and much thanks to MLK A American Hero
You should see Atlanta’s civil rights museum.
This is the history that some losers want to bury and we all know why. RIP Dr. KING #peacetoTamirRice
