ATLANTA — A new museum about the history of civil rights opens next week in Atlanta, the city where Martin Luther King Jr. was based. But the National Center for Civil and Human Rights also explores other human rights struggles, from women’s rights and LGBT issues to immigration and child labor.

The museum devotes separate galleries to modern human rights issues and the U.S. civil rights movement of the 1950s and ’60s, but also demonstrates how the struggles are related. Visitors learn through interactive exhibits and stories of real people.
