Making the Movement: Civil Rights Museum is a traveling exhibition that explores the impact that material culture had on the success of the Civil Rights Movement. The objects — pinbacks, pamphlets, mailers, posters, and flyers — helped the movement achieve its objectives of putting an end to segregation and disfranchisement, and each artifact reflects the evolving goals and tactics of those involved in the struggle for equality.
