Emancipation History Museum of Florida

The Byron L. Dickens Emancipation History Museum of Florida will offer a solution to the problem of a lack of understanding and appreciation for the history of Emancipation in America and its influence across the world. The museum will provide a comprehensive and engaging educational experience that first celebrates and honors the fight for freedom in the state of Florida.
