Jeffrey's Adventure to the Voting Rights Museum

Jeffrey apologizes for not going anywhere yesterday.  He is scared of the rain and did not want to get out in the bad weather.  So, Jeffrey agreed to let us take pictures of him at two places today!

The first place he went was the National Voting Rights Museum and Institute.  Jeffrey learned so much about the civil rights movement and the struggle in Selma.

The National Voting Rights Museum and Institute offers the United States and the world the unique opportunity to learn from the lessons of the past and to secure our rights for the future. It is a place where past and present struggles and future possibilities can be viewed, studied, felt, remembered and appreciated. It was opened in 1993 and serves as a permanent memorial to the struggle to obtain voting rights (www.nvrmi.com, 2013).
