This is a wonderful black history museum that centers on the culture in Maryland as well as the plight of black Americans in the South. The second floor of the museum has a section that is dedicated to the achievements of Mr. Lewis as a great black American businessman. It’s worth a visit if you’re in the area.

I went for a special occasion but definitely a place to visit to hear our untold stories that we don't learn about in schools. Will be a repeat place that I visit.
