What travelers say:
The DuSable Black American Museum was great for my family - small enough for a comfortable tour, and unusual enough to draw crowds. There we learned America we didn’t know before and shared the fun of discovering South Chicago.

I really enjoyed visiting this museum. It offers a great deal of history of African-Americans I didn’t know existed. In addition to a lot of written works, there are beautiful artworks for visitors to see. In addition to that, the staff was very friendly and helpful. I would recommend this museum to others.
A relatively small museum that tells the history of African Americans in the United States.
Some history of African Americans, and some precious pictures
The American Museum of African History is very interesting, and early Africans are here to be enslaved and trafficked, very sad.
