I learned a number of lessons from the historical walk in the National Civil Rights Museum at the Loraine Hotel in Memphis, TN. Here are a few of the things learned from history that apply to our lives today.

The Human or Civil Rights movement for African Americans began on the first slave ships pulling into shores of America and in the USA faded out after the death of Martin Luther King Jr.

Early on there were Africans of all religions, including black Muslims.

All civil rights, legal, policy and practice, were achieved by struggle and nonviolent actions.

From slavery to Emancipation was the first phase of the struggle for civil rights; next came the struggle of equal rights till the death of Martin Luther King. Than we have the age of new Jim Crow with tactics like mass incarceration of African American males were used to dismantle the gains of civil rights movement. Now there are signs of a hope in movements like “Black Lives Matter” where the struggle for equal rights continues.

Separate but Equal never worked and is now being use to segregate people, like in Milwaukee, the most segregated city in the USA.

Immigrants, like Irish, Germans and Italians were integrated into society in the USA but African Americans who can trace their roots to slavery but are not immigrants, were never fully accepted in the USA.

Music plays a major role in the civil rights struggle and the decline of music in Milwaukee public schools is divesting. Gospel and Soul Music keep people hopeful in the struggle.

The last year of Martin Luther King’s life from the April 4, 1967 speech connecting the civil rights movement to Vietnam War to April 4, 1968, the day he was killed was the hardest of his life.

The movement was entering a new phase were King was killed.

Who killed Martin Luther King Jr. matters us today.

There are many other lessons learned and thesethat I hope to expand on in my life. History teaches civil rights.
