Black History 101 Mobile Museum

I don’t know how I missed this amazing acknowledgment!

The Black History 101 Mobile Museum was named one of the “70 Best Places Around the World to Celebrate and Learn About Black History & Culture”! To see our work listed alongside some of the most important museums, historic sites, monuments, and cultural institutions in the world is truly an honor.

I am honored and humbled. This road has not always been easy, but every sacrifice, every mile traveled, every artifact collected, and every opportunity to teach Black history has been worth it.

If you’re interested in experiencing the Black History 101 Mobile Museum in person, we’ll be in Detroit this Saturday from 2–4 PM at The Muslim Center for the Imam Abdullah Bey El-Amin Street Naming Ceremony.

Then on Sunday, we’ll be at The Bilal Center in Kalamazoo from 3–7 PM.

CELEBRATING 30 YEARS OF THE BLACK HISTORY 101 MOBILE MUSEUM!
2025 marks a monumental year for us as we celebrate three decades of sharing Black history and culture in public spaces across the nation.

We’re currently booking for MLK Week, Black History Month, Women's History Month, Black Music Month, and Juneteenth. With the current social and political climate, sharing this critical aspect of American history is more important than ever!
