Review:

The Rosa Parks Library and Museum is intended to interpret and uphold for the public benefit, enjoyment and education, materials linked to the individual accomplishments and events of the Montgomery Bus Boycott. It features a permanent exhibit, temporary exhibit space, a time machine, classrooms, archives, a conference room, and an auditorium.

The museum was constructed where the Empire Theatre once stood – where Mrs. Parks, in 1955, made her historic stand. Six distinct areas tell the story of the courage and bravery of the early soldiers for civil rights. There is an interpretive museum in the building that also contains the TROY-Montgomery Campus Library.
