The museum covers black history from the slavery era to the Underground Railroad to Entrepreneurship to folk heroes to Scientist and inventors to civil rights to space travel to educators and leaders. There is a little bit of something for everyone here. The museum follows a logical flow through histories most famous and even some names you may never have heard of but wont soon forget.

"The National Great Blacks In Wax Museum is among the nations most dynamic cultural and educational institutions. Because it is a wax museum committed solely to the study and preservation of African American history, it is also among the most unique. Primarily, the presentation of life-size, life-like wax figures highlighting historical and contemporary personalities of African ancestry defines its uniqueness." - (visit link)
